When the light flashes a code is stored. Many code readers won't read transmission codes, so you need to find someone else to read the codes. All Ford dealers have the right tool to read transmission codes.

A friend had that same problem on his tow truck. Its a new F series w/ auto O/D. The light on the shifter kept flashing and he was told that the speed sensor on top of the rear end was messed up and was the cause of it.
