Transmission Malfunction

Hey guys, I got in my truck yesterday morning and when I started it I got a transmission malfunction warning and the od light started flashing. it lasted about 10 seconds and then went away. I took it to see if we could get a read on a code and was told it has to be giving the warning in order to get the code off it. The truck runs fine and the tranny shifts perfectly I don't feel any problems with it. Has anybody ever had this problem? 2004 F-150 4x4 Supercrew 5.4 ltr.

I could be wrong, but if there are any codes stored you'll be able to retrieve them whether the OD light is flashing or not.

My light came on one time. It said Trans Fault. I dont remeber if the OD light was flashing. I think it might have been hard to remeber it was 2 months ago. I was towing everytime I hit a bump it went from 2000 rpm to 4500 and it lasted a while untill I shut the truck off. Found out a month later my trans was shot. Had to get a new one. Hopefully thats not the case for you.
