I had a similar problem with an 95 F350 diesel I had, the light would come on and the tranny would start shifting real hard and go into limp home mode they called it , with full line pressure. Unfortunately I forgot how I fixed it, whatever it was seemed like it was an easy fix, you might try ford-diesel.com if yours sounds similar, and if you have no luck here. I realize a little explorer and a huge turbodiesel F350 must have different transmissions. just my $.02

Bugman: You could be looking at a very expensive repair if it requires a transmission rebuild and you get stuck paying for it. Even if it's the oxygen sensor(s), it can be spendy. Make sure the place you bought the vehicle from is very aware of your problem and that you get it resolved properly.
Did you buy it from a dealership? If so, have them run the service history on the vehicle for you.
