I have replaced the shifter knob on a automatic 2002. I am unable to get the OD button to work. Can someone tell me what needs to happen for this to work?

Sounds like the wires may have been broken or the connection has come apart. They are pretty delicate and easily injured when removing the stock knob. I suggest that you check the spliced connections (if you made any), the connection plugs first. If you touch the two wires together, the OD should toggle on/off each time the wires are touched. Check the owner's manual to see if there is a fuse associated with the OD switch. It may have popped during the changeover. If all of these check out OK, then there must be a wire fault and you may need a new switch/wire from the Ford parts guy.

Please post back with whatever you find out.
