SimonT Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I was driving yesterday and using the overdrive etc when it suddenly wouldnt click back in to the gear stick, so now my overdrive is constantly off unless i hold the button in!!

SimonT Posted August 6, 2009 Author Share Posted August 6, 2009 Thanks for that! Do you think ill be able to see why its not clicking in then by taking it apart?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R Black Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I have taken mine off before, and on reflection the O/D selector is an electrical switch, encased in the hammer head part, which ive not seen inside of. If the switch within is no longer clicking, the switch is then broken. Maybe someone else here has more knowledge than me can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermit Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 No idea how you get to it once you've got the stick off, but if you can, you might find the switch has just come a bit loose, meaning you can't push it in far enough to latch. Worth a look anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonT Posted August 6, 2009 Author Share Posted August 6, 2009 Ok cool thanks for the input guys!! If it comes to it how much is a new auto shifter or whatever you call it?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hermit Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Just had a look at the EPC and price list... it says the switch is 30, and the knob is 25!!! But that's just the knob... the button and a couple of other plastic bits add on another 35 Very strange pricing lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
