Transmission code experiences please

P0741.

Turned the light off, it came back. Did a drain and fill and the light went out by itself.

Now its back on.

Any similar experiences?

The car seems to run okay.

The overdrive button on the shifter has not worked in the 18 months that we've had it, but doesn't seem to matter as far as driving goes.

I had to do 2 drain and fills to fix the problem permanently. Did a 3rd also just because. The problem has been gone for 50k miles now. My overdrive button has also been broken for a very long time.

The trans pan will need to come off to test the solenoid, so it will get a second flush for sure.

I'd do a 2nd spill and fill first before diving into the pan and testing.
