Ok so I a few little things that don't work or act up one is the od light on the shifter handle comes on randomly would it be a short?

Two the door ajar thing has issues with all doors but the drivers door like u open it for a min or so close it and the truck still thinks it's ope.

Those are the two I can think of now

 

Im not sure about you door issue my truck is doing that also. I had the same problem with my OD light a while back and everything i read pointed to an internal transmission problem, i took it to the shop before it did to much damage and they said it was a electrical short in the braking system somewhere, bassically the short was always telling my truck the brakes where applied so the TC wouldent stay locked up. im not sure why that caused the light to flash but they say they fixed the short and it hasnt happen since. hope this helps!

 

Is the OD light flashing when it comes on?

 

No it just comes on when in drive and if I push the lever back towards the dash board it goes off and it's going and staying in is when the light comes on that's y I think it's a short so where would I start to look?

 

You could pull the column cover apart and follow the wires. That would be an easy check. Other than that, I'm not really sure.

 

Ok thanks when it warms back up I'll do that what about the door problem?

 

just FYI the o/d light on the shifter is also your trans warning light i wouldnt just brush it off unless you find the short. if it starts flashing each flash means one dollar in repair costs.

 

Ya but it goes away if I push the shifter but not moving gears or anything just pushing it like toward the dash

 

Still might be worth hooking to a scanner. The flashing of the OD button usually means the trans is setting a code. That's why my initial question was, is it flashing when it happens?

 

i would if i were you it never hurts beter safe than sorry. what if their is a short and the trans is trying to turn the light on but when you move it it shuts off its worth checking out
