Default 92 940 won't shift out of third gear into overdrive

The third gear light on dashboard won't go out. Won't shift into overdrive, is there a solenoid I need to replace?

Hi there. Same problem with my 940 lpt celebration. Fitted bypass plate and now changing up to 4th but on the solenoid there was a cable approx 9 inches long extending to a sensor of some kind lower down on trans box. I cut this cable but I don't know what it is for. would appreciate any help you can offer. Did you have this as well? Thanks.
