I have a 1989 245 with the following issue; OD lockout light intermittantly comes on by itself, and car drops from OD to third. Am taking a 500 mile trip and do not want to do it with an unplanned loss of 4th. gear. Has anyone, and or, is it possible to "hot wire" the solonoid? I was thinking of putting a switch on the dash to send 12V to the solonoid, until I can properly repair or eliminate the OD solonoild. Otherwise, it shifts smoothly.
