Re: *#&*Q#*&%*#@&%( Overdrive Relay!!! 200 1990

posted by  someone claiming to be blue-volvo-guy on  Mon Nov 20 09:08 CST 2000 [RELATED]

Let me ask again. For an '89 240 automatic,

1) how am I supposed to access and replace the OD switch on the gear shifter

2) how am I supposed to access and replace the OD solenoid

For the OD switch on the gear shifter, it looks like it should be accessed from inside the car. What needs to be removed/peeled back, and in what order? Is there a way to open up the plastic housing around the shifter and peer in for wire problems?

Likewise, for the OD solenoid, do I need to remove anything to access the "shelf" it sits on? For example is there a plate protecting the underside of the housing? Also, somebody mentioned that the connector-lead from the solenoid needs to be run through an existing wiring sleeve, is this right?

Thanks if you can help.
