Re: orage arrow light on instrument panel 200 1986

Now, here's an orange light symptom on my 84 245 GLTi w/AW71...

In certain conditions the orange light will come on and stay on, regardless of whether 4th/OD is engaged or not. Appears to be temperature sensitive -- when it's warmer (engine warmed up/heater on) the light will usually stay continuosly on as desribed.

Now, here is the real baffler: The OD works fine and will engage/disengage while the orange light always stays on. Also, when OD is ON, engine will shut off when ignition key is turned to off; OD relay in the dash will make a buzzing sound. When OD is selected OFF with the shifter switch (while light always on) and the ignition key is turned off, the engine will keep running!!

Any ideas?

Thanks, Robert

84 245 GLTi
