Angry Overdrive Kicking On and Off

1995 Dodge Ram 3500

The old 95 Dodge Ram is acting up, overdrive kicking on and off over and over again.
Anyone ever have this happen to them? Its a 1995 Dodge Ram 3500 with a 8.0L V10.
Driving me crazy, overdrive light kicks on and off while driving and just with the key on
accessory. Noticeable 500rpm drop when driving and happens on shifts 1-4. Changed
throttle position sensor and transmission speed sensor, no luck. Transmission fluid is full,
pan gasket does leak a small amount, checked a lot of ground wires all seemed good.
Anyone have any ideas? Any advise is appreciated, starting to think its a electric short.

It's electrical if it goes on and off in the accessory position of the ignition. I will say it's fun chasing the wires
