Had it happen on mine, right before the shifting to 2nd gear went out. I think the trans is setup to flash the OD light as an indication of some troubles.

ISTR the transmission shop owner saying one could tell by when the flashing occurred, or maybe the sequence of flashing, as to what the error was.

In my case I had about 110,000 miles on the trans...shop said his pickup (with same trans) also went out the same way at around 115,000 miles.

I ended up with a very expensive rebuild, but the shop made some major changes (like by putting in a sprag unit for 2nd gear control, revalving shift points, etc.) and the car now runs with seemingly sharper shifts and more power transmitted.

Good luck! (how many miles on your trans? if between 100K and 120K, you might have same problem...it's pretty common.)
