e4od advice

Ok you guys might have seen me on here few days ago had my od light on dim no tach. Has not acted up sense then. went out to plow last night did good for 8 hrs felt it drop out so i got out and switched relays around never did it again. pushed for another eight or so. left my last parking lot got on highway. engine reved up like i threw it in neutral let off gas pulled over checked fluid looks good perfect level. took off drove fine 30 miles did it again. drove on home another 15 miles acted fine replaced mlps 8 months ago but thats what i am hoping for. Any thoughts i havent had any sleep so brain dead. also broke that yoke piece between the two u joints out of the transfer case looks like simple fix and $70.00

If your lights have any bad grounds the torque converter lock up can disengage thinking that you've applied the brakes- senses voltage backwards up the brake light wiring!
