What I did eventually find thorough some troubleshooting was that the transmission selector switch was faulty. I replaced the switch
and have not had a problem since. I have driven several thousand kms since the switch replacement, Blinking lights gone, transmission operating normal.
Note you will need an OBD reader to clear the blinking lights once you have changed the switch.
hi and thanks for your info regarding the blinking lights etc. I have a 996 (98) and the same thing happened to me a couple of days ago. now I have a question, is it a matter of removing the centre console and simply swapping over the switch?

regards gaz
