I'll first check where the OD sub-harness meets the wiring that goes up the shift lever. In that space several wire bunches are scrunched together.</div><div>Thankyou Dave.</div><div>JohnH<br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Jul 3, 2023 at 1:07 PM DAVID MASSEY <<a href="mailto:dave1massey@cs.com">dave1massey@cs.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div><div style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:16px"><div><div dir="ltr">Does it switch in and out with no input from you or is it necessary for you to re-engage each time? If it is the former it might be something as simple as the adjustment of one of the interlock switches on top of the transmission. If it is set right at the ragged edge of actuation it can be switching from open to closed to open just due to the vibrations. Also check the wiring for a loose or poorly crimped connector. <br></div><div><br></div><div><div style="color:black;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;font-stretch:normal;font-size:12pt;line-height:normal;font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size-adjust:none"><div style="color:black;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;font-stretch:normal;font-size:12pt;line-height:normal;font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size-adjust:none"><div><font size="4">Dave <br></font></div><div><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif;color:black"><br></span></div><br></div></div></div></div>

After some work behind the dash instigated by my recovering the center console, on the very first drive OD would not stay engaged. After being switched on it would immediately begin to flip in and out, not holding OD for more than a second or two. Could this be a wiring issue? I'll be checking the switch a little later. Any other ideas? Its been working flawlessly since a rebuild maybe 10 years ago. <br></div><div>Many thanks</div><div>JohnH<br></div><div><br><span>-- </span><br><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><br></div><div><br></div><div> 415 891 8406</div><div> <br><img alt=""><img alt=""></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
