Probably because of the missing insulation from the wire leading from the solonoid on the transmission, causing the bare wire to contact a metal surface, thus creating a short circuit and blowing the fuse.
Behind glove box
Yes I just did that to mine, and it works great. No problems.
I have a 1989 Dodge B250...it has overdrive
You probably mean Overdrive solenoid, on the transmission left side Hope it's help
Piston rings and/or (probably and) cylinder walls are damaged. Rebuild the engine.
Try overdrive relay, you can buy them anywhere, replace old one, it is very easy.. I had to replace one on my 88 740. Give it a shot before you let someone work on it.

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

No
There is no separate switch for the overdrive, simply put the gear selector in the overdrive position. It looks like a D inside a square. Not all Chevy Celebrities have the overdrive feature, it was an extra cost option.
In the 1989 Volvo 740 GL with a Bosch system it is located just above the steering column on the dash.

Asian Music Circuit was created in 1989.
YES
If it was a manual trans it was a five speed. If it was an auot then it was a three speed with an electronic overdrive. So with the electronic overdrive it was a four speed trans but the overdrive failed frequently and was disabled by many owners.
First the gear could be out. The other issue could be with the linkage itself in the transmission thus it won't go into overdrive.
My Chilton Manual Volvo 1970 - 1989 has a detailed explanation of what the VIN number means on p.6
mabye u need to make a gear adjustment
Not necessarily, most do however.
Bad lighter maybe? Something else hooked into the same circuit and when you use the lighter it overloads the circuit, blowing the fuse? because of where the lighter outlet sets anything you plug in get hit by the shifter check for loose or frayed wires behind it
Try blowing graphite down there.
You do not need any special tools to change out the auxiliary fan switch on a 1989 Volvo 780. The wrenches you normally use are sufficient.
Most likey its the TH400. If it has 4 speeds, its the 700R4 (w/overdrive)
