The overdrive (O/D) flashing indicator light and the lack of reverse could be related issues. A common cause of a flashing O/D light is a transmission problem, such as a slipping transmission or low fluid levels. This can cause the transmission to hesitate when shifting gears, including reverse, and can lead to the whining noise you're hearing.
