The original problem was It would suddenly down shift for no apparent reason after car warmed up. After it would not shift into high gear unless it revved then took foot off accelerator. Shifted into high for a less than a minute and down shift again.
Trying to find problem I found the down shift switch unplugged. I plugged it in and now it would not shift with out real high revving.

You might have more than one problem. The switch is definitely NG. Leave unplugged until you replace it.
The downshift, and late upshifts are caused by a Bowden cable that is too tight. There's an adjustment to slacken that cable which will bring earlier upshifts and delay the downshifts. I'm not sure of where the adjustment is on that vehicle. Maybe others can help you with that location.
Also, if you wish to continue with this discussion, it should be done on a new thread.....this one is for vacuum issues.........not your problem.
