Could also be a TC problem or even computer problem. Is vehicle high-mileage? A lockup clutch can wear preventing vehicle from going into overdrive, no OD means higher RPMs. A tranny fluid check and possible flush/filter change may remedy this, or splurge and get a computer diagnostic on tranny, those run about $70, and will check operation of all solenoids.
