Just got my recon O/D back yesterday and reinstalled the exceedingly heavy transmission this afternoon. I think I'm ready for an aluminum bellhousing. ;-)
First leg of the test drive went swimmingly. O/D seemed to be working just fine. Flipped a u-turn to come home, no O/D. Dead as a doornail. This time, it's not the hydraulics but the electrics. When I was wiring up the inhibitor switch, I noticed that it was *very* loose on it's mounting. It was getting too dark to really see how the thing is attached and after laboring for the preceding few hours, I was too impatient to mess with it. Besides, it was working... for awhile, anyway. So now then, does anyone think that the loose inhibitor switch might be my culprit? Any good sequence suggestions for tracking down electrical problems with the O/D? I was thinking of starting by removing the wires from the inhibitor switch, connect them together, then try the switch, just to see if I get a click from the solenoid. I've already taken a peek at the switch wiring itself under the gearshift cap, and the wires appear to be fine. I'm just hoping my solenoid didn't fry itself.
