So the O/D light can and will start flashing at random times, most times it's followed by a check engine light. Also when it happens the trucks drive-ability does not change at all, acts like everything is normal.
Have pull the codes and it shows a VSS error.
I have already replaced both senors, the one on the rear diff and the side of the trans. After I did that both lights stayed off for a few days.
Now within the last few days, the O/D light started blinking for a few mins, then it would shut off. Now today it started blinking again, this time it tripped the check engine light to come on. After that the O/d light whet back to normal and just the check engine light remains on.
After you replaced both sensors did you clear the codes? Are the same codes back again after being cleared?
Maybe dirty/loose wiring connectors or worst case senario loose/broken tone ring in rear diff.

Yes, I did clear the codes and yes the same one is back (P0500)
Wanted to get the rear lube changed anyway so that would be the time to check for tone ring I guess.
