Overdrive button sticking...
I did a search and didnt see anything about this....
My O/D button is sticking......
I push it, and then have to get my knife and wedge it beside the button to get it to come back up and turn the O/D off.
I am sure it is from dirt/sand/mud but would like to try and fix it than keep using my knife all the time.....
Anyone run across this?
Also how hard is it to take the button out to check/clean it? I assume it involves taking the center console apart, but how much?
Thanks

Mine was sticking due to a significant amount of sand on and in EVERYTHING.
It eventually worked its way back to normal function, however.
(and I'm still finding sand in strange places)

mine sticks a little- nothing so serious as what you're talking about. Mine actually pops back up, just not quick and smooth like it was new- too much wheeling in dusty and sandy conditions.
I imagine a can of spray computer cleaner would likely help. But I have not tried.

Most likely, if not sticking from debris, it is hitting the console. You could try to adjust the console. Maybe just a good shove would do it. Otherwise, I would loosen the console and file out the opening for the OD button.
I use mine daily and so far (knocking on wood) no issues. I have also wheeled in sand and have it in all the little corners of the interior. From the way some people complain about the auto and the 3.8L, maybe you're better off with it stuck in the off position
