Lost my OD - have you seen it?? 200 1985

Have an '85 245 (4spd stick + OD & 230k) that I've owned for almost a year to the day. Had to replace the rear two tires yesterday (nail in the sidewall of one) and this morning noticed that I no longer had overdrive! Later on in the day, I looked at the fuses and saw no sign of any problem with #11.

Did a search for previous suggestions and was able to find some with photos attached, but they seemed to be for AT cars only. I will take a look underneath to see if I can spot the wire from the gear shift knob to the OD solinoid and hope the problem will be obvious.

Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated................
