A malfunction has been detected - get it checked out
Transmission Problems, you shouldn't be driving with this on!
The OD light flashing is an indicator of an electrical failure in the transmission. Get it fixed now or replace the tranny later.
There is an electrical failure in the trans and will have to be checked out by a good trans shop. GoodluckJoe
first you nee to check and see if your car is referred to as OBDI or OBDII if its ODBI then you start with the car off.. turn the key to run but do not start the engine.. at this point you have less that 5 seconds to push the gas pedall all the way to the floor and press the overdrive button five times... then the check engine light will stay on.. and then blink... next its going to blink out the code for you for ex. blink-pause-blink blink-pause blink blink blink-pause blink n that would mean the problem code is 1231 just Google BMW problem codes and use that dcode to find out what the issue is..
It means the computer has sensed an issue with the transmission. You will have to have the code read to find the problem. Many auto parts stores will do this for free.
Your transmission needs service. It most likely was overheated or there is a problem with one of the shift valves. might be your torque converter
If a Ford Explorer headlights blink on and off after 10 minutes of driving, it is highly probable that there is a short bad overdrive pump. Rest the car and clean the grounds. Also check for loose or broken wires.
You will have to check all the door sensors.
Could indicate problem with transmission 1st try disconnecting battery and tying + and - battery cables together for about 10 mins. to see if this resets and may solve problem--if light continues to blink have vehicle scanned to see if any codes exist
