The overdrive problem on a 1995 Mazda Protege is due to a failing spring in the end housing inside the transmission. If you replace the spring with a new or used factory spring the problem will re occur. You must use a revised version to permanently fix this problem. I have seen salvage yards advertise this overdrive unit. What a scam. Even the brand new factory unit will fail, so obviously a used one will also fail. You must contact a transmission shop, they will probably have seen many of these in their shop and will have the part number of a revised unit.

What would cause your overdrive switch to not work on a 1995 Mazda Protege when passing a car and the overdrive switch is off it won't automatically shift down to accelerate?

If the overdrive switch is turned off then the car will not go into overdrive. As it is not in overdrive, then it will not downshift out of overdrive as it normally would. It also will not shift to 3rd gear above a certain factory preset speed. Turn th overdrive on and see if it operates normally.
