I was driving the vehicle and the "OD" light started flashing. The transmission began to shift hard I was unable to stop the light from flashing by pressing and depressing the "Over Drive" button. I went to the dealer they reset the code cost $122.00 drove 100 miles same problem went back to dealer they said I need a trans flush did that still the same. Reset code no flashing light trans ran smooth and 100 miles later back on again. Anyone ever get this problem code and have it repaired correctly? Its amazing that the transmission works fine when the code is reset but after awhile the OD light flashes and the trans shifts harder. The dealers need qualified transmission mechanics able to diagnose these codes properly and stop guessing and taking peoples hard earned money and not being able to satisfy the problem the first time.
