My overdrive would disengage sometimes while going down the highway, but the light stayed on. I could hear no relay click.

I got under it today and moved the wire from the solenoid to the transmission, and it came loose from the blade connector end. So I cleaned it up and installed a new connector.

Presto, OD seems to work fine now. (fingers crossed) Must've been barely enough wire hanging on to let it work most of the time, but wouldn't let enough juice through there to work under all conditions.
