2003 Ford F250 SD - no overdrive (or always on)?

2003 Ford F250 SD - no overdrive (or always on) when button is pushed, 1 & 2 on shifter have same gearing and only 2 shifts in all. Has no power and can very slowly increase speed over long stretch of road but will coast just fine in neutral. Origanaly thought that it had water in fuel or clogged filter.

Have the vehicle scanned for trouble codes,and diagnose any codes present.If no codes,or as an alternative,i have at work a Zoom Technologies box that allows me to monitor transmission function as being commanded by the vehicle's PCM,or manually override the vehicle,and take manual control of the transmission.It is an expensive diagnostic tool.If the trans is commanded manually,and 4th gear doesnt happen,then you're looking at electric solenoids on the valve body,or possibly damaged servos.Servos can be accessed with the trans in the vehicle,and inspected.If the servos aren't the culprit,then it is likely an internal problem.

SOURCE: f150 transmission neutralizes when shifts to overdrive

I have that exact same truck and transmission and My Transmission did the exact same thing about a year ago and there was some kind of snap ring inside the transmission that broke. I originally thought it had to be an electirical problem because the truck shifted fine until OD or if i turned OD off. The 4r70w is a light transmission and i would suggest you have a shift kit put in and they make a heavier kit to beef it up.. Sorry its probably not the new you were looking for.

I have a 2001 ford focus, my wife spilt water on the gear shifter and now the overdrive light will not go off even if the button is pushed
First of all...water and electrical connections don't mix well. Since the overdrive button is located on the left side of the shifter, and your wife spilled water on the shifter, the water has likely caused an electrical short.

With the ignition key off, try using compressed air to blow out any possible water or moisture around the shifer button and at the base of the shifter itself. Since the overdrive button has electrical connections inside the shifter, the water has probably caused a short. (I repeat...water and electrical connections don't mix well) If this doesn't cure the problem, you may need to disassemble the shifter mechanism and check for water or moisture. The electrical connections or wiring may be wet inside the shifter, which is likely causing the problem. Blow the areas out with compressed air and make sure everything is clean and dry. Then reassemble the shifter mechanism and reheck to see if this cures the problem.

Good Luck!

Overdrive light on shifter is flashing on my 1997 f-250 automatic 7.3 deisel
IT IS LETTING YOU KNOW THAT YOU HAVE A TROUBLE CODE IN THE TCM (TRAN CONTROL MODULE) COMPUTER MOST OF THE TIME IF ITS FLASHING,IT WILL EITHER NOT SHIFT INTO OVERDRIVE,OR SHIFT WEIRD,USUALLY IT WILL GIVE YOU REASON TO CHECK THE TRANS, IT COULD BE A SIMPLE AS THE O/D SWITCH IS BAD, & IT IS TELLING YOU THAT O/D CANNOT BE TURNED OFF.

2005 ford ranger 4L 4x4 overdrive does not engage when button on shifter is pushed. I also do not see the light on the cluster on
If you have it in 4 LOW, you would never need overdrive. Overdrive is a road high gear that you would use only in 4 HIGH (or 4H) on your shifter. 4L (or 4 Low) would only be used in a very slow speed hill climb. You would NEVER use 4 Low on the road.

Overdrive is always on
The prob is a fragile wiring harness at the base of your shifter handle, the wirings easily break from movement when shifting from park to drive. The wires can be respliced or the handle can be replaced

Turn the overdrive back on
There should be a button on the shift lever itself that says O/D when you push that button in it will either turn it on or off. If it is the steering colum shifter it is on the very end. If it is the console mounted shifter it is closer to the passenger chair
