If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

In The Olden Days this happened a lot, as the detergent action of the fresh oil dislodged dirt that caused the mechanical govenor to stick: you removed and cleaned it.
Nowadays we have these new fangled "electronic" 'boxes that are computer controlled.
I would suggest that you how have a sticking shift solenoid valve, depending on type, it will be called solenoid C or 1-2 solenoid. JATCO 'boxes are well known for it: worse in cold weather.
It will need the oil pan removing and then you can access the control valve assembly.
I'd take it to a transmission specialist unless you really know what you are doing, and can get the parts.
