solenoid pack
So i'm getting the O/D flashing light. My AE is ready P0741. I have already flushed my tranny fluid and changed my filter, thought that fixed it but the flashing came back last night on the highway.
Next, is to change my Solenoid Pack. But the only place I see it for sale is Ebay for $235, any other companies sell NEW solenoid Packs?
Here is the one for sale on EBAY.

Why do you wanna change the shift solenoid? What has led you to believe it's bad?
That code you have listed is for a torque converter, but even if it was for the solenoid, that wouldn't necessarily mean the solenoid is bad.

Stewart - thanks for responding to my post. I've been doing alot of research and have read that some people have the same issue that i'm having and replaced their solenoid pack in the transmssion. Also read somewhere that ford instructed owners to change the solenoid pack for trucks made in a range of dates.
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?

Are you getting any wierd TC operation when the code sets? It could be caused by many other things other than the solenoid pack, i.e. Electrical Inputs/Outputs, Vehicle Harnesses, PCM, Digital (TR) Sensor, BPP Switch, PCM depending on the symptoms.

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

You're welcome. 
Sorry it took so long. Got tied up there and he took me out to lunch. 
Here's the tests. For the TCC, use the PWM ohm reading
