Overdrive allowed is the NORMAL position
Overdrive allowed is the NORMAL position ( if I'm on the highway and have to go down a long / steep hill , I like to cancel the overdrive with the switch on the end of the gear selector so the transmission stays in drive and gives some engine braking )
The 1996 Ford Explorer overdrive sensor can be found on the right hand side of the transmission. The overdrive sensor will be near the front of the transmission.
Even after pushing the overdrive cancel button again ? to allow the overdrive feature On my Ford Explorer with the column shift automatic , the overdrive switch is on the end of the gear selector lever
how do you replace the overdrive sensor on a 94 ford explorer
On a 1998 Ford Explorer, Overdrive Band Failed Off means that the vehicle did not shift into Overdrive properly. The band for this gear should be serviced soon.
Overdrive is the normally allowed position in a Ford Explorer automatic transmission , once the vehicle speed is fast enough ( my Ford Explorer is 50 MPH ) the automatic transmission will automatically shift into overdrive
No, something is wrong.
On the Ford Explorer , on the end of the automatic transmission gear selector lever ( park , reverse etc ) there is a push button that allows you to turn off the OVERDRIVE feature if you wish
A malfunction has been detected
On the end of your gear selector lever ( P , R , N etc. ) there is a push button that allows you to turn off the overdrive for your transmission. When the overdrive feature is turned off the O/D OFF light lights up in your gauge cluster. You can either push the button again to enable the overdrive , or the next time the vehicle is shut off and then restarted the overdrive feature is normally allowed
When the overdrive light blinks that means a malfunction has been detected - get it checked out
You can identify whether or not your 1997 Ford Explorer has an overdrive drum sensor by looking at the identification tag on the transmission. The identification tag will list the overdrive drum sensor.
