Anti-theft alarm light Overdrive Off Indicator (If equipped) This light tells you that the Overdrive Off (O/D OFF) switch on the gearshift lever has been pushed. When the light is on, the transaxle will not shift into overdrive. Depressing the O/D OFF switch located below the gearshift release button on the floor gearshift or located on the end of the column gearshift will return the vehicle to "overdrive on" mode. The transaxle will be in the "overdrive on" mode when the vehicle is started even if the "O/D OFF" mode was selected when the vehicle was last shut off. If the light does not come on when the O/D OFF switch is depressed or if the light flashes when you are driving, have your vehicle serviced at the first opportunity. If this condition persists, damage could occur to the transaxle. Overdrive off indicator 90
