Today is March 3 2005.... I'm currently attending Wyotech in fremont CA. Now I've been having this problem where the car wouldn't go into fourth gear, and how do i know? I can just feel it. So I go underneath the car and noticed that the solenoid on the transmission looks like it blew up

so then on the same day i went to the junk yard and picked up another one. Went to school and installed it.. my teacher thought that it would actually work.. but then it didn't. the overdrive light even came on. Dyaam that fourth gear... now if anyone can help, i'd really appreciate it.... but for now im going to work on that overdrive light maybe its the fuse, switch, or bulb, i don't know.

but thank you

Was the overdrive light on from the start? If so check the overdrive relayThey go bad pretty often.It should be either behind the A/C vents by the glove box or on the drivers side under the dash.
