The flashing OD light is telling you that there are codes in the tranny control module. Get the codes and find out what is wrong with your transmission. You can go to a tranny shop or the dealer, to find out the codes. Do NOT go to Auto Zone or any other parts store chain for the codes to be read. Their code readers will NOT read our trucks, no matter what they tell you.

Replace the rear abs sensor in the rear diffferential housing. If you notice, when that light is flashing, your speedo doesn't work. Mine did the same thing...$10 part and 15 minutes.

What Jesse sez.

The part he refers to is commonly called: Vehicle Speed Sensor, or VSS.

I have replaced these in 2 Econolines that had the same symptoms. I also replaced the overdrive switch to be sure, but they both have been fixed for about a year now with no re-occurances. :sweet

Mine recently did this. Took it to the dealer and turned out that the whole instrument cluster needed replaced. $570.
