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?

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.
