So, I am driving to the store yesterday afternoon and the "O/D Off" starts blinking (I tried to push the button to turn the light but, didnt work).....I pulled into the nearest parking lot and checked the transmission fluid had to just a tiny bit (dont know why I checked trans fluid first thing....it was the first thing that popped into my head). Needless to say, light still blinking! Then I just shut the Explorer off and looked in manual. It said something to effect
of, if that light starts blinking and doesnt stop to get it to a shop asap. The manual doesnt give much help. Its kinda vague and basic.
My question(s) is/are: What could be going wrong to cause the "O/D Off" light to blink? Do I need to park my Explorer and not drive it at all til I can get it to my repair shop? Is there anything I could be doing that would at least give me some kinda insight as to what is going on (incase I cant get into the shop for a few days or so)?
What the "O/D Off" light is doing today: It will start blinking (like yesterday) and do so for a few minutes, then stop for a few min....then repeat the blinking/not blinking routine over and over.
What do I do!!!
