Yesterday while driving, the OVER DRIVE OFF light got stuck on . in my 99
Windstar .As i was getting ready to get on the highway, I had to stop and
shut the car off adn start it back up to see if the OVERDRIVE OFF light went
off.
Well, It did go off but now it won't come back on.
Anyone have any experiance with this... thanks for your help....MArK

I've seen switches gone bad

As long as the O/D lite is  not flashing and then come on steady  you should
be ok

Switch is really easy to replace
