Blinking o/d light and battery light

[sailsmen]

There is a casting boss near the firewall that can chafe the wiring harness.

Try a search wiring harness chafe.

My o/d light started blinking at the track a couple of weeks ago. Tranny failed shortly after that.

Update: Currently at the dealership using their computer. Well, they tested it and as it turns out it is either a short in the wire harness or a bad soloniod (sp?) So basically something electrical in the trans wiring. So the car has to stay in the dealership overnight at least. We will see what happens tomorrow.

Make sure all your keys work when you pick up the Marauder...
If one of them doesn't, have them all recoded to the car again ASAP.

I am ahead of you on that one....I brought all my keys with me to work this morning.

Good News!!!! The Silver Ghost Marauder is ready for the road once again.....It was some bad soloniods in the Transmission....I will get back to yall on the technical jargon when I pick her up.

Can you tell me how much the bad solenoids in the trans cost?

My light blinked tonight and shifted funny. I pulled in a parking lot, shut it off and restarted it. Seemed to act okay. Will know more tomorrow.

[SID210SA]

I dont know but I will try to find out for you....mine was covered under warranty.

Sorry it took so long, but I am in the middle of moving out of my apt into a house and kept forgetting to get my invoice.

I Had The Same Symptons With The Misshifting And O/d Light Blinking. It Happened Three Times On And Off Before I Actually Brought It In To The Dealer. The Are Currenly Putting In Remaned Trans.

Yr And Mileage---03', 32,500 Miles
Cost Without Warrenty 3,ooo$.

Extend Your Warrenty If Possible As Soon As You Can To Avoind Cost.

[SID210SA]

I did not extend my warranty because I have mechanical breakdown insurance thur my "Little Green Lizard " friend.....They cover any thing mechanical or electrical that breaks...

What are we talking about here regarding the car and car key's being in "sync?" I am at a loss regarding the intended meaning of this comment. Thanks

[SID210SA]

The keys are coded to the car. Its call the PATS....or Passive anti theft system...each key, 2 regular keys and 1 valet, has a chip in them and need to be programmed to the system....so you just cant get a key cut and try to start the car cause it wont work. Hope this help a little cause thats all I think I know about it

Thanks for the info.

Just took mine to the dealership today. Blinking o/d light and engine light on. O/D not working (bad on freeway). They checked it out and said it could be one of two things and ordered parts. Said the pan would need to be dropped. Everything is covered under my basic powertrain warranty 5year/100K.

Any time....Hope this info helps get you back on the road soon!!
