Overdrive in Surf not working

gud day, I had the same problem with my 93 pajero auto about a year ago. at that time, i also checked all the fuses and sensors and they were o.k. referred it to a personal technician from mitsubishi. Traced the wiring and found out there was faulty wiring from the o.d. button to part of the auto trans which looks like a cpu. the wiring was really mixed up. luckily he reconnected the correct wiring back to its supposed to be connections and o.d. worked like a breeze. i suggest u contact a mechanic you know who works in toyota, the problem on ur surf might be similar to what i had previously on my pajero. Hope this helps :-)

Have a 93 Surf myself and tho not having had that problem (touch head) would suspect a wiring fault.
