Fixing 1984 Automatic OverDrive Button

[turner850]

My 1984 Celica Supra's an automatic and the overdrive button is broken

To use overdrive I have to hold down the button, Driving on the interstate my girlfriend ties cloth around it to hold it down lol.


The button used to lock when I bought it. But I took the stick all apart to paint my interior and I remember a small tiny spring flung out and I could never find it

I don't know why that spring would have to do anything with it because it still springs back

it just doesn't lock

Anyone know how to fix this problem?

salvage yard time...

I don't think the TSRM covers this.

Go to a Toyota dealer have them pull up the illustrated parts break down of the shifter and print it for you, that will give you a good idea where and what it does, If you order it from them it may cost ya.

So I did what yea said :)

Turns out the part I need is not in the US and would cost $150 if it was

To get it shipped from Japan would cost me like $300 for a spring the size of a pin tip lol

I have a used shifter here ;) Just need to remember/find where I put it, LOL.

Tanya, I'll be 1/2 way to your place in about an hour --- Don't make me drive the rest of the way, just to bitch slap you :D

Autos > Manuals = I can drink my coffee/beer/soda, and still kick your ass on the Highway !!!!!

I thought the coffee and beer were just swapped out in the IV drip. Coffee for the morning and beer for the rest of the day.

Mine = The UPS car needs to leave the driveway, and the Red Monster has to be done.

Yours = How much beer you going to bribe me with, to get back to work on your harness :facesjump

I'm not trying to claim my n/a 5 speed will beat your turbo automatic, so loosen up the knot in Aaron's panties that you're wearing on your skullet :loser: :kekekegay

[Junkie]

You started it missy ;) Aaron told me those panties were yours --- Guess he needs a good whipping tonight ... hell, that won't work either, he'll just ask for more ... I'll just give him back to Rich :D

Shouldn't need to bribe you with any beer as that harness is well paid for already.

Hoping to get this beast running before the nats, how about you? :)

LMAO, condsidering If I show up, wire it, and you don't have replacement parts, for the borrowed items, you still won't have a running car when I leave :D Beer bribes are in your best interest ....

Now, seriously, get the car ready for me.

Why check w/ the dealer???? There are peeps here that have copies of the EPC that can post the exploded picture of the shift handle.

The quicker way, is probably ask Mark.
