1996 transmission problem

1996 F-250 260,000 MILES RUNS PERFECT. O/D LIGHT BLINKS WHEN LEFT IN OVERDRIVE ON FREEWAY, STOP TRUCK AND SHUT OFF START AGAIN LIGHT GOES OFF, LEAVE O/D OFF AND IT IS FINE.. NO BLINK. ALSO HAS SLIGHT CONVERTER FLUTTER IN O/D WHEN GOING UP HILL. DON'T THINK SHE NEEDS A COMPLETE REBUILD BECAUSE IT IS JUST FINE WHEN O/D IS OFF. ANY THOUGHTS

Your transmission is 100% electronic controlled, the blinking light is trying to tell you something. Check for codes.
