Default Transmission issue.

I have a 2000 Grand Cherokee 4.0 4x4, It doesn't want to shift into the next gear from 1st gear, and if i accelerate it neutrals out, and i have to let rpms settle before it has 1st gear again, What Can be the problem?

I have seen a bad gov. pressure solenoid and shift solenoid cause the transmission to not shift, but you usually get a check engine light when that happens.
