    You mean the OD light? The wires that run to the OD button might be frayed or damaged. Check that first.

    i feel your pain ,my mountaineer did that for a few months untill it wouldn't shift at all. i ended up putting a remand trans from ete reman in it. From what ive been told the valve bodys in those things are junk and cause overheating from slippage. Mine was a 04 with 58000 miles when it went. it started out as a harsh engagment from park to reverse and reverse to drive. The company i bought from uses a upgraded valve body during the rebuild, it cost 1100 and came with 3yr 100,000 mile warranty parts and labor. Ps . i tried sticking a new vb in but by the time the light came on it was already toast.
