I have a 94 940 wagon, non-turbo. I got it about a month ago and am still figuring out all of it's little quirks.

I have the issue with the overdrive failing on me, and the car won't go passed third gear. I know that I could replace the relay, put on the bypass, check the solonoid, etc. But the right blinker is also blinking in double time. Are the two related? I always thought that the faster blinker was a sign of a failed / failing relay. I'd love to just put the bypass on but if that means that the blinker is still going fast then would replacing the relay fix it or is it blinking like that for some other reason?

 

do you have a burned out turnsignal light?

The OD has its own relay. I dont think they are related.

Wait for the experts to get on.

 

you'd better HOPE they aren't related. start with the easy stuff and check all the turn signal bulbs are the same wattage

 

all the bulbs should be the same, but the plastic casing on both the reverse lights are busted, I just haven't ordered new ones yet. I couldn't imagine how the two could be related, but I'm still getting used to these cars and have decided against making any more assumptions.

With that in mind, I found a nice overdrive relay online, we'll see how it works when I pop it in.

 

I have 1997 volvo 960 and my overdrive light keep on flashing. Can you pls tell me where exactly the overdrive relay is located and what could be the problem
