You should have an AW70/71 but I seriously doubt fluid and filter will resolve your OD issue. What makes you "seem" to think the OD relay is working? Can you hear it click? Does the shift light in the dash turn on and off w/ the shifter switch? Generally, if the answers to the above are yes, the problem is the actual wire under the car leading from the shifter to the overdrive solenoid mounted on the side of the transmission. Road debris, years of ol and tranny fluid can really do a number on the insulation and the wire and it can ground out on the chassis or completely break.
