Have a 99 dodge durango, hit a pothole today. Minutes later "Transmission temp" light and "o/d off"light came on. Had just got in the vehicle 5 minutes before I hit the pothole. Now these lights blink on and off every couple of minutes with a beeping noise. Two weeks prior I had a computer diagnostic done and the only alert was "shift solenoid". (Automatic)Don"t have any problems shifting, the truck drives fine. Can you please advise?

I feel that something has been damaged when hitting the pothole, I would suggest that you re scan for additional fault codes, start here.

I had the re scan done and it had no new fault codes. Only p-073a, shift solenoid. I wanted to know if the vehicle is still drivable? I don't want to burn up the transmission. Whats the next step?

There is a problem with the solinoid or the wiring, often in this case you would replace the solenoid as this is the most probable cause of the fault, I would get this done sooner than later.
