Why is the light blinking on my Ford PowerStroke?
In April I towed a 34′ trailer to Talladega and noticed the light blinking. No towing issues at all. A few days ago on the way home from work, it was holding out longer (RPM’s) before shifiting into OD. Last night on the way to a dinner, it popped right out of OD and would not pull in any gear (even reverse).

When does the OD light flash on a Ford?
In later years of this model production (aprox. 1995-2003) these vehicles were equipped with either a 4R44E transmission or (1999 and later) a 5R55E transmission. The former has a speed sensor located near the tailshaft housing that, when going out or has gone out, will cause the O/D Off light to flash intermittently or constantly.
