tranny problems caused by chip?
I had the same situation last week. Just cruisin' along and the trans kicked out of OD and the light was blinking. By the way, Mike, it was me who called you. I pulled the chip to verify it was clear. So far so good. I haven't had any problems or lights since. Let me know what you find out.

I have the same exact problem you are having but I do not have an aftermarket chip installed so I would not blame it on that. I took my truck to my dealer after it happened a couple of times and they could not track down the problem. It has not happened to me for about 7 mos now so I hope it is something that will not return. Hope this helps! -BL
I looked up speed sensor in the repair manual I have and it says there is one for each wheel.

Hi King James,
Ahaaa, so one of your original suspicions, that it was possibly overheating, is what that code turned out to be telling you, very interesting!
Do let us know what you find out & good luck!
