Override switch function

[Mike Hohnstein]

Good luck, sounds like you will need it. Always scary when things with wires
are "abandoned". I would be checking on the coolant ph if I were you. You
don't get any second chance with overheating a Detroit. Replacement engines
start at about 20 grand installed.

There is a switch on the dash and in the engine bay labeled
"override". Does anyone know the purpose of this switch? I was told it
is to allow you start the engine when the "system" shuts down because
of "out-of-norm" conditions and you can get off the road. I believe
the engine is pre DDEC becuase it has a manufacter date of 1984 but
not sure how to tell.

Also the high temperature shutdown control (located drivers side upper
rear by the coolant intake for the coach heat) is melted and the wires
have been cut. I would like to have this working, has anyone replaced
this part? What are the chances of finding a wires schematic for this
switch?
