Do you mean O/D light? Thats the overdrive off indicater. It tells you if you have the overdrive turned off. It also acts as a "check engine" light for your transmission. If it starts blinking that means the transmission control module has detected a fault with the transmission and it needs to be serviced/repaired.


If you agree that the answer I provided is correct please remember to "accept" and/or mark it as "helpful" so I know I'm doing a good job. Thank you, I would really appreciate it.
