"Service Engine Soon" + Flashing "OD OFF" light...

2000 F250 V10 Auto/Rebuilt Tranny...

This weekend, I noticed my truck wasn't shifting at lower RPMs like it has been. I'm not hitting much higher RPMs per shift then normal. Very soon after, I get a "Service Engine Soon" light and my "OD OFF" light on my shifter handle started flashing.

Any ideas gents?

Ha I get to beat Mark again. If the OD light is flashing then it has stored a code, you need to have those codes read before we can help you figure out what the problem is. And not any cheap code reader will work like the ones they have at the auto parts stores. You need to have the dealer or someone with the right scanner do it..

Most independent shops can read the codes. It doesn't have to be a Ford dealer.

I don't have to go to the dealer... I have a friend that works at the dealership. He does all my work at his cost. Parts/Labor.
