Hello,

I've got a '96 Ford Taurus 3.0 V6. The tranny will not shift
into over drive. Even on the highway at speeds of 70 mph, it won't
shift into o.d. Also, for quite a while prior to this, the "Service
Engine Soon" light has been on.

The car shifts nice and smoothly and I haven't noticed any problems
with the tranny other than the o.d. problem.

Any idea's what might be causing this? Thanks in advance for your
input.

When the Service Engine soon light comes on that usually means there's a
problem... maybe even the one you're having.

MOST people go to Autozone or other part store to have the codes read out.

Bring back the code # , not just the 'definition'
