I'm willing to bet the wires to the OD off switch have broken... The reason I say this mine did the same thing almost 4 yrs ago..

The wires broke right where the shift lever connects in the column, took the plastic cover off and it was right there, spliced the wires and used heat shrink, it hasn't missed a beat in almost 4 yrs....

BTW, mine popped the fuse everytime I put it in reverse....


NO DON'T GO BIGGER ON THE FUSE!!!!!!!!

Which fuse is it? Mine did the same thing when the cruise servo went bad. Don't go up to a higher rating..
