Z31 Auto Transmission over-drive switch

[pushticat]

According to the Owner's Manual for my 84 300ZX AE the over-drive switch should light up briefly when starting up. This it does. But the Manual also mentions the light being on when over-drive is engaged. This it doesn't. Does anyone know where the fault lies? In the switch or is there a sensor somewhere?
Thanks

Oh dear! No replies. Perhaps I am asking the wrong question. Here we go. Does the green light on the overdrive switch on the console of the automatic transmission of the 1984 300ZX AE light up when overdrive is engaged?
Thanks.

Been forever since I drove an auto Z31, but I believe that button lights up when you lock out overdrive.

As you have nothing constructive to add to this topic one wonders why you bothered.

because you were complaining about no response, you have an AE so I won't bother telling you to drop the dead weight and swap in a manual trans, most people with auto trannies that act up either swap in the 5 speed to take ti to an auto trans specialty shop

Thank you for not bothering to tell me.Goodbye.

Light is on means OD is locked out.
