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
1) Check with your dealer, there should be an update (flash) for the body control module and/or 2) Change oil & filter.
Check shift sensor
Not if you have an automatic transmission.
If your Oldsmobile Alero will not shift into overdrive, the transmission may have froze up. Check the fluid levels to determine if you are low on fluid.
on the gear shift at the end of it. You just press it in.
If your 93 Nissan Pathfinder transmission won't shift into overdrive, check the transmission fluid levels. Ensure the fluid is at the proper level.
I'm not a mechanic, but you should check your transmission fluid level first, then take it to someone to check the clutch either automatic or manual.
Overdrive is the normally allowed position ( it won't shift into overdrive until the speed is fast enough )
The Dodge Stratus should solenoid can be found on the side of the transmission. The shift solenoid will be on the right side. The shift solenoid should be labeled as such.
You should just pull the shifter into the "3" position and it will never shift into overdrive.
Overdrive is the normally allowed position , but it won't shift into overdrive until the speed is faster such as on the highway / freeway
If it has overdrive use it! it is a "highway gear" it will make no difference what so ever until you get up to speed then it will shift into overdrive and save you gas!
