I have a 96 Ford Taurus SHO haven't had any major problems with it at all everything has been driving well and shifting great but about a week ago my O/D light came on and was flashing. I've talked to some people about what it could be but no one could give a clear enough answer no one really knew why it was flashing i even took it the the dealer ship and they just looked at me funny. It would be great if someone could help me out here tell me what it means and what i should do. Thanks!

Usually an indicator of the PCM seeing a problem with the transmission. Have the PCM scanned for codes to se if it has stored anything
