Rob,

You could have a fluid level issue or an electrical
issue.  Could be the switch on the top cover is loose.
 Or some loose wiring behind the dash.  I'd do the
easy things first...wiring behind the dash the fluid
level!  The O/D shares the oil with the gearbox.  The
filler plug is on the driver side of the gearbox about
1/2 way up.  You either pull the tunnel, get under it
or take it to a quick lube place & see if they can put
it on a rack for you & bring some oil with you...if
you're going to top off.  

While you're under the car, look for any of the wires
missing insulation...especially the one goin' down the
the solenoid.  Just a thought.

Cheers,

Todd
