Default new owner with a couple questions

I just got a 94 3000gt base. I have a couple questions i need help with. The overdrive doesnt seem to work if you push the button in it does nothing no light up on dash or anything any thoughts? The power eco switch does not work either. My rear wiper will not stop the switch doesnt stop it when turned off. If motor is hooked up wiper runs non stop. I got a new motor and still have the same problem? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

As far as the power/eco goes, does it go into 4th gear and then just not shift back to 3rd when you press the button are does the car never actually go into 4th?

For the rear wiper, I'd check the switch. It sounds like the switch is probably broken and causing the wiper to always stay in the on position.

Sounds like your light is dead. Does it downshift when you press the O/D button when at a higher speed(60ish MPH, not flooring the car)? Wiper I'd go with the switch isn't working right, is permanently on. Get a new switch, or pull your motor. Seems alot of people don't like the rear wiper anyway.

yeah i gotta 94 SL
the overdrive works trust me
and it wont show you that its on, but when its off an orange light shud say OD OFF
idk about the wiper, and for the ECO/PWR, mines the same way, but i can def feel the difference, so i say we both have bad lights, no biggie.
