Thats what my 420SEL does as well. So it sounds like the module would work for you.

The module will simply engage the kickdown solenoid when the vehicles is below some predetermined speed, say 7-8 mph. Once it is over that speed it will disengage the solenoid and normal shifting will resume. Every time you slow down and come to under 7-8 mph it will engage the solenoid and back to first you go.
