Torque Converter Locking Up

Occasionally when I come to a stop, it feels like the torque converter is still locking up.Ythere is a definite vibration/humming noise. If I accelerate or kick it into neutral it stops. I've put an 01 xterra transmission in & new maxlife syntheic fluid, 3000 miles ago. The trans temp usually ranges from 150-180. I've also noticed at start up, occasionally the "power" button will light up for a brief few seconds.

If the trans switch lights up orange for a couple of seconds that's normal. If it flashes green on and off that can be fixed by simply switching ignition off then restart again and you're good to go. When the trans switch flashes that means the trans computer has detected an electrical fault somewhere and will therefore operate in limp mode. Can be rectified by following the above.
