- '01 XLS
A few days ago I noticed that my automatic trans on 01' Explorer XLS 4.0L was abnormally shifting from 2nd back to 1st at around 25mph (rpms went from 2100 to 2900) when accelerating slowly. It stayed in 1st for a second than back to 2nd...then the rest of the shifts were normal. Just today the O/D off light started flashing, but the problem of gear coming out of 2nd to 1st went away. I am wanted to drive to visit family tomorrow, noticed fluid level in trans is at good level....can driving 100miles with this light on cause more problems then already exist? Or is this electrical and the problem can be addressed later?
