The flashing D is a trouble code from the electronic transmission controller. The flash pattern can be used to diagnose what the problem is. Something is not right with your transmission. Take it to the dealer or a mechanic and have it tested. Hope this helps, James Booth. PLEASE RATE THIS!!!

01 chevy duramax not shifting out of first gear and gear indicator flashing when in Reverse and Drive. Pops into reverse for a second then out and Drive will go in but shifts in hard.

Valve body on the transmission is not working. There are shift solenoids attached to it that control it so look for a blown fuse first.

Odometer and gear display flashes quickly, especially when driving

It could be due to the electrical board fuses going bad. I had to replace one for my odometer/gear indicator not long ago on my '98 Century. For some reason it's a common problem for Buicks. If you go to YouTube and type in "odometer repair" there is a video that will show you how to do it,if in fact that is the problem. But the gear shift indicator and odometer are all tied in to the same circuit. If you do try to fix,it really helps to have someone else there to hold the fuses steady whenever you are soldering the new ones in.
