My overdrive is not engaging .

I presume I should start with the electrics first?

What are the first things I should check/try?

1. Check oil level.
2. Check solenoid and lever on right side to see if you have movement. If not 
check,  power supply to selenoid.
3. Check pressure of the pump with a gauge. 475 lbs. min. pressure.
4. Check that both check valve balls are seating.
You can increase pressure sometimes by putting about .090 inch shim behind 
the large accumulator spring.
Hope this helps.
