OD off light blinking while driving... (2nd Gen)

[2Walker5RS]

My OD light decided to start Blinking today, OD was still working... Is there a code for this? Any one come across this before? I restarted the engine and it went away.

One thing I notice (I'm not sure if this is normal or not) My 4Runner will come out of OD >>>VERY<<< easily while driving on slight inclines... Is this also abnormal or is it becaue the 3.0 is just plain gutless and needs to downshift?

Any input would be awesome!

So, I know this thread is insanely old, but if ANYONE sees this. The link posted here is dead. And I still don't know what is wrong with my T4R. (exact same problem as OP)

Here is a working version of the link (as of this post) from the WayBack Machine from the Internet Archive: https://web.archive.org/web/20100806134914/http://ncttora.com:80/fsm/1990-1995_4Rnr/Toyota.4Runner.1990.1995/FSM/95toypdf/95rmsour/1995/954runne/at2/troubles.pdf

Grab a cup of coffee (if that is your thing) and enjoy the read!

Thank you! Edit* Looks like when my main wiring harness was chewed through by a huge rat. When I turned the key and nothing happened it through ALL sorts of codes. After I repaired it, wow did that take a while, I never actually reset the ECM so the code remained. Yet to do a road test but looks as if it will work!
