How do you tell when car is in over drive?
If you have a digital display which tells you the gear the vehicle's in, the gear it's in can tell you if you're in an overdrive gear or not. However, you have to know your transmissions. For example, in a transmission such as the 4L60E or 46RH, only the fourth gear is the overdrive gear, so you know you're in overdrive when you're in that gear. The 6L80E has two overdrive gears, so you're in overdrive when you're in fifth or sixth gear. The other way involved a bit of mathematics, and probably isn't that practical to try doing while the vehicle is in motion. You would also need to know your transmission final drive ratio and your rear end gear ratio.

Your 1989 dodge ram d250 van will not shift into overdrive what should you check?
Overdrive should be ran by electrical ,so check your fuses . If that's not it check wiring that runs to transmission.You will have to get under the vehicle . There is an electrical switch that shifts the trans into overdrive , that is your next step . If you have a owners manual in the glove box it should tell you which fuse runs the overdrive circuit .Hope this helps . Rick

700R-4 if it's an overdrive transmission. You can tell if it's a 4 speed overdrive by the "D" on the shift indicator. Overdrives have a circle around the "D". Non-overdrives (3 speed automatic) don't have the circle around the "D". If it's just a 3 speed automatic, it's a Turbo Hydramatic 400, commonly called a Turbo 400 or simply 400.
