if you have votlage there when it's in reverse tehn it's aground problem. if you aren't getting voltage then it may be your neutral sasftey switch. i'd really have to look at a schematic to be sure though. the neutral switch may be on the trans. been a long time since i worked on one of these. I do have a schematic for it though. If you can't find your problem get back with me an dsend me your email and i'll email the schematic but it will take a little time to fin d it.
