Why is the overdrive light on your Nissan primera on?

Here are a few reasons why the overdrive light on your Nissan Primera may be on:

1. Low Transmission Fluid Level: If your transmission fluid is low, it may cause the overdrive light to come on. Check the fluid level and add more if necessary.

2. Dirty or Burnt Transmission Fluid: Dirty or burnt transmission fluid can also cause the overdrive light to come on. This can be caused by excessive wear and tear, overheating, or contamination. Have your transmission fluid changed if it is dirty or burnt.

3. Faulty Solenoid:** The overdrive solenoid is responsible for engaging the overdrive gear. If the solenoid is faulty, it can cause the overdrive light to come on. Have the solenoid tested and replaced if necessary.

4. Faulty Overdrive Switch:** The overdrive switch is located on the gearshift lever. If the switch is faulty, it can cause the overdrive light to come on. Have the switch tested and replaced if necessary.

5. Faulty Wiring or Connections:** Faulty wiring or connections can also cause the overdrive light to come on. Check the wiring and connections for any damage or loose connections. Repair any damaged or loose connections.

If you are unable to determine the cause of the overdrive light being on, it is best to have it diagnosed by a qualified technician.
