Overdrive won't light up or kick in - 740 Manual 700 1986

Hopefully, I am not looking at a new trans. My '86 gle has only 58k on it, and runs like a champ.
The problem: When I hit the OD button, the car will no longer go into 5th gear. It worked for the 10 months since I got the car, but all of a sudden decided to take some time off. The button is testing out ok continuity-wise, so what is the next probable solution - and is it going to cost me, or can I just fix it myself? I live in an apartment, so any work I do on it will have to be light and clean. Thanks for any help you can provide.
