850 Automatic Transmission Slipping??? 850

Hi, I'm new here. I have a '96 850 TLA turbo wagon. I was driving it the other night and my automatic transmission started slipping. It started slipping softly until it would slip so badly that it wouldn't move. I would be in Drive, 3, or L and it wouldn't move as if it was in neutural. The overdrive light started flashing and the light down at the sport/economy switch was flashing too. Plus the check engine light came on. I drove it home, but every 5 min I'd have to pull over and let it cool down for about 2-3 minutes, then after I'd wait a couple minutes, it'd be ok to go for another 5 minutes. I hope it's not the transmission going bad on me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Danee
