last night i raced one of my buddys trucks with a 305 and gracefully flew past him however this morning i started my car and the o/d off light was on, now driving my car i realize my o/d will not turn back on, any help is greatly appreciated, thank you

 

Did you try pressing the OD button?

 

lol yes sir i did, numerous times while the car is on and off

 

Is it blinking? (OD off light)

 

Heh, definitely the first thing to check.

Any CEL/flashing OD light?

 

no flashing, i t seems as if it is just stuck off, i havn't ran the codes yet, my cel has been on b/c of the iat and an o2, i will have to check later after work for a code

 

Is it mechanically stuck (OD button), or just wont turn on even after the button is depressed? Button lets a small 'clicking' noise letting the user know it has been pressed.

 

Aren't only 95-96 click on/off? I thought 97-99 have a momentary push button for O/D. May be relevant, maybe not.

 

ya the button clicks and switches normally

 

Me = 95 owner.

 

mine is a 95 model, does the drop resistor mod have anything to do with this, b/c i have mine hooked up to a switch in my car and i usually shut my car off then flip the switch and start it back up again but i was in a hurry b/c we heard the cops coming and i just flipped it and lined up. after i got back into town i shut my car off and flipped it back then when i started it the o/d light blinked(like it always does after the drop res) and it went off, i cruised and drove about 45 miles to my freinds house and back and got home and went to bed, then this morning it is ****ed up

 

Check the ECU codes.

 

ok i tried the auto tranny code check in the fault indicater sticky but nothing blinked at me and nothing happened, the codes i got off my car are these...
0103
OBD-2 Diagnostic Trouble Codes are always four digits. Your DTC "13" is actually "0103", and it points to the Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor.

(^^^^^even tho i ****ing changed it about a week ago..)

0303
Diagnostic Trouble Code 0303 indicates a problem with the front Oxygen Sensor on the left cylinder bank.

0401
Diagnostic Trouble Code 0401 points to a problem with the Intake Air Temperature Sensor.

and 1205 which i do not have access to that link for some reason but i think it is the drop resister

 

i can't ****ing believe it, i figured out what was wron, i was looking in all the wrong places, my o/d switch is out lol, so if anyone else ever has this problem

CHECK YOUR F'IN SWITCH B4 YOU FREAK OUT AND DIE!!!

 

hahahahahahahahhahahaha..... man i cant stop...

 

Explain

Your OD switch in the shift lever is 'out', as in FUBAR'd? Or physically out?

 

like somthing in the button is messed up, i took the little screw of the shifter and pryed the button out, started the car and the o/d turned on!!!!!!!
the button is physicaly out now i have to replace it!!!
