Did you bump the reverse lockout solenoid or take the plug out of the transmission?

It's on the right(passenger) side, there are 2 solenoids, one is the Cags and one is reverse lockout... solenoid may have just gone bad, or maybe a short in the wiring. Thats the only thing i can think of if this is the first time it's happened and all the other gears are fine.

Its likely the reverse lockout solenoid. Either its unplugged or the " ENG SENS" fuse simply blew out. Id check that fuse first.
