Speedometer not working on 2000 4 cylinder ranger. Also shifts out of OD at will. O/D light flashes. Tranny filter and oil changed but no improvement. What is the problem?

150,000 miles regular service, no other problems since I bought it in 2000

Sometimes gauges like that will become overheated time after time and cause a spot to be "cold saudered" where the connections on the circuit board go bad. If there is a discolored spot on the back of the speedometer try re-soldering the area that is discolored.

SOURCE: OD light flashes .

Sounds like the transmission fluid is getting too viscus. Might want to check it, or replace it. I would just get the trans fluid replaced. Costs 80 dollars or can dIY for 25-30$

SOURCE: goes into neutral and then shifts hard into 1st on slowdown

It sounds like your input clutch seals are rolling. Is the check engine light on. It could also be the pressure control solenoid could be causing the problem aswell

SOURCE: 1999 Windstar ABS/Traction/OD off light and speedometer

Its a faulty sensor switch on your brakes master cylinder. It leaks brake fluid into the wires that are plugged into it and causes a short in the circuit, resulting in a blown fuse that controls the AC, odometer, speedometer, cruise control, and ABS light to come on. This problem can also cause a fire. The fire can occur even when the vehicle is off. To fix this problem go to this URL - http://www.fordwindstarrecall.info/

SOURCE: 2000 maxima with no overdrive and code po744

This code indicates a mechanical problem inside the transmission. Likely in the valve body or the torque converter. He is a description of the cause and a list of possible problems. To diagnose this you need a scan tool capable of reading the trans control module and a pressure guage to read the fluid pressure.

Overdrive light flashes on and off

This will occur if the control solenoids that are located inside the pan on the valve body, are malfunctioning. First, i would check the fluid level. if the fluid level is proper, have the tranny flushed and change the filter as well. If this doesn't fix the issue, go ahead and replace the control solenoids.
