I recently purchased a 3 speed with a Borg Warner overdrive box. I have it installed in my 55 1st series 3100. I am going to wire it up like it came from the factory with a relay and kickdown swithch. I have the wiring diagram but the solonoid on the transmission doesn't have the terminal 4 or terminal 6 marked on the solonoid case. Is there any way to know which is which so I get things wired right the frist time and not burn something up?

Why don't you post a copy of the schematic and maybe someone here could point you in the right direction.

Denny, Thanks for your response. I was looking for the schematic and actually found an answer to my question. I found a link that told which terminal was which.
Thanks again.

Reason I asked Grant was not only because you might get an answer but we might share the information with the the other 25,000 registered members of the group.

But glad you got it sorted out on your own.

Where'd you find the wiring diagram and info for the OD? I have one too and I'll be wiring the truck in another couple months.
