Speakin' of electrical problems with overdrives, I recently had someone
riding in the passenger side & the next day the overdrive didn't work. Who
knew a big foot would snag the wiring harness up under the dash. It's a
J-Type so no relay, but a quick check of the wiring revealed a connection
that had come loose. Definitely listen for the "click" sound with the car
in 2nd(a-type) 3rd or 4th & the engine not running.
