"S" Light is on 1991 Honda Accord EX

I Have A 1991 Honda Accord. Over the last month or so, it will put itself Into "sports Drive." The "S" light on the dash goes on, and it switches to this drive, which revs at higher RPMs (5000 if running 60MPH).

How do I fix this?

Thanks For Any Help You Can Give

I had a 1991 honda accord do the same thing!! I started by disconnecting the battery to clear any trouble codes. this seemed to help for a while. after a couple of weeks it did it again! After alot of internet searching (and hair pulling) I found it! I was instructed to pull back the carpet on passenger side floor board and to inspect the wire harness that goes into the transmission computer, I found mine to be corroded. After cleaning I never had that problem again! the computer is located in kinda a stupid spot, all the water that soaks into the carpet from the passengers shoes it was did it!
