4r100 won't decel with O/D off
My truck lives with a trailer behind it and I always turn overdrive off when under 50 mph and turn it off to help slow the truck and trailer down when coming off the interstate. About a month ago when I turned od off to take a exit truck did not decel. Just shifts to 3rd and engine goes to idle even at highway speeds. Truck still tows fine. No trans codes no flashing od light. Trans was rebuilt at 163,000 miles have 183,000 now. I'm stumped to what it could be.

Then you're lucky. Your coast clutch is still working, the trans does NOT have to come out to fix this.
The first thing to do would to check for codes. That may show what the problem is. It is going to be either a wiring issue to the coast clutch solenoid, a bad coast clutch solenoid, or a stuck valve in the valve body.
Since it has engine braking in second it proves that the coast clutch is working because the clutch is applied without the solenoid when the shift handle is in 2.
