Default 03 6.0 tow haul light

So my tow haul light will start flashing & when it does this my truck will not shift right, until I stop and shut the truck off. Don't throw no codes when I scan it??? Trans temp is normal, no check engine light... Could this be the solenoid sticking?

Yes it is very likely a sticking solenoid, when is the last time the trans was flushed and new filters and fluid put in??

Check out the GOGO direct solenoid, supposed to be the best
Go Go Diesel

Default OD issue

I had that issue in my 00 and had it at the shop, ended up being a caromed terminal on one of the batteries, feeding the computer bad readings. Cleaned it tightened it and haven't had the problem once since that, 6 months ago, good to go
