The flashing o/d light only comes on everyonce and a while and only when i'm on the highway. Again its not all the time.

I gave BTS a call today but he hasn't called me back yet.

Stewart got any idea what i should do? should i just bring it to the stealership?
I just know that when the shift solenoid in the 4R100 in my Lightning was bad, the trans shop did something with a multi meter hooked directly to the solenoid to determine if the codes tripping the SES light was due to a bad pack.

It was. They replaced the pack.

My point was, don't just go by the codes that activated the SES light.
