Good morning,

Did you check the fluid level to be sure it is up to the correct level?

I need more information. Is this the HD?

What engine? Gas or diesel?

Hello again,

A common issue with these that I have found is the torque converter hub. The torque converter seizes and breaks the hub. That will give you no forward or reverse.
