In normal driving conditions operating in Overdrive is fine and expected. In conditions of heavy loads or pulling something i.e. (trailer) overdrive should not be used. The transmission will shift up and down alot and in turn possibly overheat the transmission fluid creating extensive wear on the transmission.

Plain and simple the overdrive switch is pmost definitely bad take to a professional if you don't know what your doing,go to a shop that specializes in electrical work NOT THE DEALER,they will tell you your overdrive is burned out.
why does the 1991 Lincoln towncars transmission not have overdrive?Instead of going into overdrive it seems to go into neutral.But if you take it out of overdrive and leave it in drive it never goes into neutral while I'm driving.
Should be
you shouldn't have a problem doing this as ford used the same motor/transmission combo for many years.
Yes it will but the front drive line will be different and the wire harness is different
push the 4x4 on dash
allows power distribution to the overdrive solenoid for overdrive engagement.
No
overdrive is a type of gear ratio. there are three kinds, gear reduction, direct drive, and overdrive. overdrive has a ratio that is smaller than one, example: .7:1 this means the differential will turn .7 times and the axle will turn once. it is meant for cruise, and fuel economy, not power
If the 4 wheel drive option is not working properly on a 1991 Ford Explorer, there might be a problem with the transfer case. The transfer case is the transmission that is used while the vehicle is in 4 wheel drive. It may just need to be oiled or there could be a vacuum hose loose.
