Isuzu 5 speed no reverse (Page 2/2) NuttyToe NOV 03, 03:12 PM quote Originally posted by Patrick: Quitting, or perhaps moreso in this scenario... failing. I was originally going to say "goes away", as 2nd gear just isn't there anymore when it fails, but I thought maybe that phrase might've confused you! Haha gotcha, I figured that's what you meant but didn't want to assume. Thanks for the reply NuttyToe NOV 20, 11:49 PM If anyone cares, it ended up just being a really stuck reverse shift fork. Slammed super hard into reverse and it works just fine now. Patrick NOV 21, 12:14 AM quote Originally posted by NuttyToe: If anyone cares... It's always appreciated when people make the effort to report back and bring some closure to a thread. It might help the next person who experiences the same problem. So thanks. luso31893 MAR 13, 04:07 PM quote Originally posted by NuttyToe: If anyone cares, it ended up just being a really stuck reverse shift fork. Slammed super hard into reverse and it works just fine now. How exactly were you able to slam it in? At the trans or at the shifter itself? Mine just lost it in winter and then came back randomly but has once again gone away. fieroguru MAR 13, 04:21 PM You might try removing the reverse light switch. It has a ball detent and if stuck will make shifting into reverse more difficult.
