If that light blinked you will have some codes stored, normally when codes pop up its because the tranny is slipping many times the Torque converter.

Most likely you have a damaged and/or corroded wiring harness. It's going to be intermittent until it fails completely. This usually requires someone with the right tools and experience to find and fix the problem. A good independent shop is your best bet, dealers don't often get problems like this.
