I need help. O/D light blinking after 5 speed conversion. Any ideas welcome!
I just finished my 5 speed conversion and man what a difference my rpm's don't drop below 4800 but anyways I have a problem with my O/D light blinking at me everytime I start my car. I changed my ecu to a manual one but it still does it. Can anyone please help me! thanks for your help in advance
4800 rpm?... let off the gas buddy... anyway im in the same position, apparently there's a transmission control module to be unplugged, or some people told me to unpplug the od light

Unplug your TCU and the light will stop blinking.
TCU = Automatic Transmission Control Unit.
It's blinking because it can't find the automatic transmission anymore.

Just pull the O/D bulb in the gauge cluster. I did this because it's annoying to have an orange light come on everytime I shut the O/D off.
If the car doesn't shift into 4th, I know it's off...so there's no reason to have the dumb light
