6 Warning Lights and Gauges Overdrive Off Indicator (Automatic Transaxle Only) This light tells you that the Transaxle Control Switch (TCS) on the gearshift lever has been pushed. When the light is on, the transaxle will not shift into overdrive. Depressing the TCS button located below the gearshift release button on the shifter 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 TCS is depressed or if the light flashes when you are driving, have your vehicle serviced at the first opportunity. Turn Signal Indicator Lights The turn signal arrow will flash to indicate the direction in which you are going to be turning. 63
