The overdrive button on a 1997 Crown Victoria may not work due to several potential issues. Common causes include a faulty overdrive switch, a malfunctioning vehicle speed sensor, or problems with the transmission itself. Additionally, low Transmission Fluid levels or old fluid can affect overdrive functionality. It's best to have the vehicle diagnosed by a professional to identify and resolve the specific issue.
A malfunction has been detected
a malfunction has been detected
That indicates that a malfunction has been detected
Should be a push in, at the end of the shifter arm.
yes
depends on the year of the crown vic got to be more specific
If it's the same as the 1999 Ford Crown Victoria " civilian " version : The O/D OFF ( Overdrive Off ) light is above and just to the right of the speedometer
Because Overdrive forces the Engine to Lose Revs. Basically your engine won't Rev as high, as fast. Thats all.
I have a 90 crown vic. Send me a email address. Mine is irishone_oneirish@yahoo.com
It's on the Gauge Cluster, Green Light With OD in the middle.
On a 1998 Ford Crown Victoria : Overdrive is the normally allowed position , although the transmission will not shift into overdrive until the speed is higher If the overdrive is switched off , on the gauge cluster just to the right / and above the speedometer you will see the O/D OFF warning light ( if you have the digital dash it will show overdrive off in the upper right )
if you can be magical dreams can come true.
