Hey y'all,
Haven't posted for a while, still been reading, just not posting. But of course got a problem. Getting my 100M ready to take to the Atlanta Concours and of course the overdrive goes out as I'm driving along at about 60. Ran fine otherwise and when I got it home did the test where you have the engine off, turn ignition on, switch on OD and then slide gear lever over in 3rd or 4th. Didn't hear the clunk so checked the fuse - have the solenoid wired separately on its own fuse. Fuse has blown. Put another one in, only a 15, try it and it blows immediately. Put the correct 25 in it doesn't blow, but you can hear the solenoid trying to move, like a hum, but no clunking. Thinking the solenoid has failed. Of course if I wasn't getting ready to trailer the old gal up on Thursday, would just take interior apart, take off the tunnel, and see what I have. But, trying to avoid that last minute tear down, etc. Any ideas on a solenoid trying to engage but just humming, not clunking ???
Thanks
Mike
