When driving, shift indicator lights up, D, which is normal. However, after a few minutes, the N & 3 also light up on the shift indicator. I don't hear or smell anything. After a few days, check engine light went away and only D lights up. Do I need to do anything?

Yes, you do, before you fry the transmission! This is an intermittent problem in the TR (transmission range) sensor circuit! It is ALWAYS important to provide the DTC number (P0705) rather than the code description ("transmission range sensor a circuit") It makes diagnostics a lot easier!
The TR is NOT the only thing that will cause this condition!
