F250-E4OD problem

HI I just joined this due to ; 1992 f250 7.3 w/Banks turbo -Tranny ISSUE--
E4OD problems are ; (recently purchased w/ this problem)
*O/D light flashes in park- and appears does not cancel O/D driving
*When I got it- very brutal shifts -trans ran cool though...
*Then one day it began shifting as normal.. BUT noticed on the highway longer drives - the trans temp gauge going up - to the edge of red..
*When near hot(stopped)- would not move ahead until it was revved up
*Changed fluid and filter(add Lucas too) and it looked fairly clean- no metal very minimal fine particulate,did find a 10mm nut from stud in pan so put it back on (not sure what it was for but stud spins) not see any way to bolt filter- assume it friction fits?
* Back on the road - after 30-mins driving and tranny working nice - TEMP goes up again - to same area b4 hot (red zone)
*fluid is full and prior was not bad smelling - this tranny had been rebuilt not long ago - and these issues began after that...
** ? Is this the 'trans Control Module' OR previous codes from old issues of worn out tranny??
I have no way to get this rig into the city, nor the cash to put into someone else scratching their head for 3 hours.
(have not looked @ brake lights-hear that may be related somehow- huh!?)
Thanks in advance !

The first thing to do is to read the codes. THIS will show you how to read the codes.

The Suspense Is Killing Me !!!

I've been waiting a Decade to find out what happened, what was the cause of his issue, what was his issue in the first place ? The Transmission Temp Gauge showed it was Hot ?, was the gauge factory, was its tac set for the right temp range? , the transmission was Just Rebuilt but the problems began After that? Was the Transmission Shop at Fault? Nuts and Bolts and spinny things in the pan... I'd be suspicious and a little tiny bit miffed with them... Was the issue actually the reason the trans was rebuilt but it did not fix it... $1900 for a rebuild on an E40D ? I always believe that with Performance Cars and Trucks Period... A Larger Trans Cooler than Factory is Best... I just keep wondering if he is still Broke, Stuck on the Side of the Road, and Without Hope... I also Believe that when you post to a site for Help... The least you can do , is to repost with the outcome and that you got home safe... but mainly the Answer to the Problem...
I assume he has an excess of Blinker Fluid, Muffler Bearings had Inverted the Polarity of his Warp Field and he was low on Part# 710...

I do actually hope he's ok... Imagine being stuck on the side of the highway.. Going online Frantically for help with His Truck, then some **** Texting and Driving , veares out of the lane into .... His Truck...
Truck gets totalled and He doesn't need to fix it.. but he's ok...
. Anyway, it's Amazing how many posts like this there are..
. Anyone care to take a guess at what happened or what this issue was .???

. CHALLENGE.... Required: Creativity , Technical, Whit, and some Tom Foolry.. . Intellectual Prowess is always a plus too...

More diagnosis was needed.
