im not the tranny expert but

do you shut it off with the o/d on? maybe this could be the reason why its still on when you turn on the truck

Sounds like a possible wiring issue maybe. The O/D should be off every time the truck is started no matter if it was on or not before the truck was shut off.

No, the O/D should be on every time you start the truck.
