I think I got it figured out. Just for S & Gs I got one of them lights that go into the reciever and plugged it up to the 4 way. After about 10 minutes of driving my OD light went out. I have heard about the tranny having issues with the TC but not OD going completely out. I am heading out to San Diego Friday morning and my goal is 23 mpgs.

Chuck wondering if you ever got this sorted out? I Had the exact same thing happen to me in early April. Mine did not fix itself though, needed a new PCM. Whatever little chip on there that controlled the OD circuit failed. OD light stayed on constantly but never got a code for it.

Not completely. It does go out and run right for a while. I am kinda wondering if my VSS has taken a dump cause my wife has made a few trips following me in her truck and she always says that I am 5 mph off. I show that I am doing 65 and she will be doing 60. Plus the little speed things on the side of the road that tells you your speed shows me 5 off. I am not aware of the gears being changed but I could be wrong.
