Assuming the transmission shifts 1 2 and then stays in second gear without ever neutralling out the most likely cause would be a stuck 2 3 shift valve in the valve body.
If im shifting manually it will shift fine into second a little weirdly but rpms drop normally. The ford aod transmission was evident in cars like the mustangs fairmont and ltds around 1980 and 1993 and it was quite unique even though not in a really good way. When im in drive waiting for it to shift into third at about 25 30 miles an hour 3rd is non existent. In dod which is fully automatic the aod performs a 1 2 3 4 upshift as vehicle speed increases. The valve body kit is intended to modify a properly functioning transmission not to repair a problem. Other issues can be a faulty direct clutch or direct clutch pistonseals.

There are two types of throttle valve control systems used with the aod. Refer to aod valve body kit faq 1. For starters it uprooted the second gear in the shift pattern which left the latter dwindling in the gory land without remarkable performance.
If you get a harsh 2 3 upshift the problem is likely the 2 3 accumulator or excessive line pressure.
