It is giving you a code to lookup so you can replace the part that is bad. Most shift solenoids are internalized in the transmission but I have seen some externally mounted. You might have and output sensor that is giving an erratic signal. Pull the codes for the transmission and get the problem fixed en right away.

Its most likely related. Vehicle speed sensor is bad

The OD light is flashing to alert u to the fact that some kind of fault has occured in the transmission, the problem is in many cases a slipping condition, you need to have the trans control system tested for the trouble codes that are stored when this light flashes, this will let u know what the problem is and a direction to follow to repair it.

Take the VSS unit out as described. Need two people. Have the unit out of transmission but hook up the electrical wire. Turn the ignition ON but do not start the engine. Turn the gear while someone watches the speedometer. If you get a response then just replace the gear and try it. The gear may not look worn or broken but just a little wear and it looses contact with the transmission worm gear. This may cost you about $6 instead of over $60.

Hi, the car is winding out due to a vacuum leak. Not sure if the misfire is related or not. I would start at cylinder 1, though. I would check all vacuum lines attached to the intake manifold, especially around #1. Replace any cracked or hardened hoses. If all lines are good, then I would check for an intake manifold leak. With the engine idling, spray some carb cleaner on the intake gaskets especially around cylinder #1. If the engine speed changes, you have a leaky gasket. If none of these ideas panned out, I would start checking the purge valve and other valves along the lines that attach to the intake manifold, but this sounds like a pretty big leak you should find quickly. Please let me know if you have questions or need any instructions, and thanks for using fixya.
