Overdrive Switch: Description and Operation

The Transaxle control system is equipped with an transmission control switch (TCS) used to inhibit fourth gear operation. The transmission control selector lamp on the instrument panel will illuminate when fourth gear has been "locked out". If the TCS is depressed during fourth gear operation, a 4-3 downshift will occur. The TCS should be used when descending hills or during city driving to increase engine braking. The TCS is located on the end of the gearshift lever.
