Default Stalling

SO i was driving my car yesterday and it stalled. I knowticed then that the "Arrow" transmission light was blinking. It wouldnt start for some time, but finally did. The next morning it would not start again. I lifted out my ecu's and put them in again and it fired up. I dont know it this was just coincidence. But my tansmission idot light is still blinking. What does this mean?

anything would help. COuld it be low transmission fluid?

SO after 2 days of stalling and falshign lights, I started it up in the morning and nothings wrong. As if there was never a problem at all. Runs fine now so im clueless. Why do volvos fix themselves?

Sounds like you Park nuetral switch is on its way out. Had a same problem with my '93 850 with 200K on it. I changed the switch and it is fine now. Took about 3 hours to change and part was about $110.
