So I just replaced my shift bezel on my 1995 Mustang GT. Thus I replaced the OD switch.
On my original switch, I put a voltmeter on it and it was not detecting continuity when the switch was pressed. Nor was there any change in resistance.
With the new switch, I put a voltmeter on it also and there was no continuity beep when the switch was pressed. However, there was a change in resistance.
When I got it all installed and fired up the car, the OD switch worked fine. Push the button, OD OFF light came on on the dash.
However, I tested while going down the road, and it doesn't come on. I can tell the transmission is down/upshifting when you press the button though, so the button is signalling the transmission. It's just not consistently turning the light on and off on the dash.
Any ideas?
I'm about to pull the cluster again as the new LMR bezel has to have some plastic removed so that the trip odometer button is not continually pressed. I'll pull and re-seat the bulb when I do that.
