Sound good, Cable control: out is disengaged, in is engaged. Toggle to power the solenoid.
Just get up to speed, push in the cable, flip switch on, back of throttle until the od engages, then add power. Under normal highway driving you can switch od on and off with just the switch(will work in any forward gear). Problem with that is the sun gear allows free wheeling when you let off the throttle (no compression to slow down). It also locks out reverse when od is engaged.
