You will need to at least have the codes read. The OD light flashing means the transmission has set a DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code). Most likely there is something wrong with the transmission or its electronics. I would suggest having it checked by a reputable transmission shop.

Good Luck.

Just another note, the transmission will go into a limp mode when the O/D light flashes. You may also notice hard shifting.

O/D light flashing

Hey I just had this happen with my 01 F250 with the 7.3. Took it to the shop and they said 4th gear was gone. 1200.00 to fix. Best of luck!
