QUESTION: Yes it does

Answer
this vehicle was known for the o/d button wiring to chaffe against the steering column and the shroud that covers the directional switch/shifter lever etc. remove the upper and lower covers of the shifter column. tape the wiring coming from the column shifter. ( you'll see the o/d wiring coming through it and might even notice a bare spot in the wire)
