when i had the od sol.out and put power to it. it worked when i hook to the #4 terminal and the #6 terminal is to diactdvat it when the gas pedal is press. all the way down and press the kick down switch. i had the power wire from the over drive relay going to the #6 terminal. and when the gov. got up to speed and turn on the over drive the hot wire was shorting out on the over drive sol. case due to it was hook up to the #6 terminal which is the ground on the over drive sol.and was turning on the alt light. thats why when i slowed down the light will go out due to the over drive gov. slowed down and turned the power of to the over driver relay thus turning off the power to the over drive sol.. now when i moved the wire to the #4 terminal which is the power side of the over drive sol. it did not short out any more. and the wire coming from the kick down switch went to the #6 terminal which is is tied in with the coil to make engine coil short out and miss to let the pawl disengage when the kick down switch is actdvated. will this what i get out of it. and it drove good today with no problems.

p.s. the 12volt battery in the trunk is a stand alone for just the radio and nothing else..
