OD on '93 945T won't engage

I drove from Iowa to Florida, stayed there a week, then when I was ready to drive back, the OD wouldn't engage during normal operation. The only way I could get the OD to engage was to accelerate normally to 55mph, then accelerate rapidly (push the pedal down quickly about 1.5 inches)to 60mph, then let up on the accelerator and it would shift. After doing this, I could cruise normally at interstate speeds. If I dropped below 45mph, I had to go through this process again to get the OD to engage. I've re-soldered the OD relay (re-soldered the fuel pump relay at the same time), and tried adjusting the downshift cable. Neither procedure solved the problem. Does anyone have any suggestions to solving this?
