Hi there enthusiasts!
Can anyone help with what I believe is an overdrive switching problem on
a 1980 MGB Roadster. All of the sudden my overdrive does not kick in, no
other symptoms. I dismantled the switch on the gear shift knob and found
no current or voltage across the switch terminals (in any gear).Is there
a fuse that could be blown on the line (checked the main 4-way switch
box) or any way of easily checking the circuit. I presume one wire
supplies 12v power to the switch which goes to the overdrive solenoid,
then completing the ciruit by an earth to the unit. Could I bridge the
power line directly from the battery as a check?
Your input will be greatly appreciated!
