A few months ago I was having a problem with the O/D light flashing on and off. After getting the codes, Speed Sensor and Shift Solenoid, I repaced them. The car runs better but after I installed the new shift solenoids 1 and 2 the O/D started to flash again. I check the code and it keeps giving me the same codes 62 which is the no 1 shift solenoid, what gives? These parts are brand new. Help...
Shift Solenoid

Bad wiring, it's broken, or you didn't clip it in good enough.

Your O/D lockup clutch has/is failing.
Dual failures, simultaneously, shift solenoid and speed sensor, are highly unlikely.
Speed sensor is used in all modes, gear ratios.
Disconnect/reconnect the battery to reset memory, lock out the O/D and drive the car for awhile. If you get a "repeat" shift solenoid and/or speed sensor then continue looking there, otherwise......
Lockup clutches are not very sturdy, high miles in hilly/mountainous terrain, consistently heavy loading, towing, etc, lead to early failures.
