Mine did that off and on for a while when the tranny would shift hard. Hasn't done it in a long time but i'm pretty sure it has to do with the tranny.

Thats pretty funny becasue mine started to happen right after i replaced my tranny. It flashed maybe once a week or every other week for a couple of months but hasn't done it in probably 3 months. I heard something about a connection near the rear end pumpkin area.
