What buttons or switches are there in the Q45 for the auto? I see in the diagram something about a '1 switch'. Is there an overdrive button or power/economy switch?

the 1 switch is when the shifter is put into 1st gear, since it doesnt mechanically shift the transmission into 1st, it just commands the TCU to hold 1st gear.

So that switch must be inside the t-bar? Damn! More work!

You're right. I'm not building it for power. I doubt I will ever need to hold it in 1st on take off.
