Red face Auto Transmission Problem

My 97 F350 deisel had a rebuilt tranny put in at 98K. Fine until about 6 weeks ago. Check engine light comes on and O/D starts blinking. Sometimes happens as I start and stays on until I shift and have removed foot from brake. Then usually goes on w/out problem. However, once in awhile the check eng light and O/D start to blink while I am driving. Then it feels like the bottom falls out of the truck and it continues in "limp mode" for awhile until it seems to reset itself. Dealer has replaced 6 sensors and installed a new processor. Problem not solved. Rebuilt is still under warranty and need opinions. Is this electrical or mechanical? Don't want warranty to run out if need another tranny!
Thanks, I am new so pardon if this has been answered elsewhere.

Welcome to FTE. It sounds electrical to me. How does it feel shifting? Do you know what the diagnostic codes were when they pulled them?

Joe-M, Thanks for replying. Mechanic out sick so need to wait until this week to see what codes were. Shifting feels a little hard but not consistently so. Some times shifts fine, other times seems a little jerky. As soon as I get the codes I will post them
Thanks!
