I am definately not a happy camper! My 02 Ford Exploder decided it was going to flash O/D OFF light consistantly. It is weird when I turn it on it isnt on until I start driving aways then it turns on. It has been on about a week and yesterday it just started hesitating to switch gears from 2nd to 3rd. And when it down shifts the same gears. Im terrified. I cannot afford to replace the transmission. Can someone help me? I have read that it could be the auto trans solenoid pack and if I replace that it fixes the problem? What is the hissing sound when I accellerate? I also read something about the valves??? Will the light turn off once I replace the solenoid? Please someone help me I could really use the guidance. This seems to be a very common problem and ford is doing this to make money-- if they werent- they would have fixed the problem after 12 yrs of manufacturing the vehicle that every year has the same exact problem with this o/d light accompanied by transmission issues.
