I installed headers this past weekend on my Z. After everything was all done, I was going to go on my first test run with the new headers and could not shift into reverse. There was a lot of tension blocking me from going into reverse, but with a lot of force it would finally go in. It just doesn't feel right. Does anyone know if it is an electrical problem???

 

when i put an automatic program into my M6, i had to muscle it into reverse. it also had NO lockout for reverse while i was moving. i put my M6 program back in and it was fine again. not sure what setting caused the problem, though.

 

I did have some computer work done this weekend. I had to have the VIN# changed to unlock a hypertech. The VIN# installed was from an automatic. I'll have to see if that is the VIN# listed is still in my car's computer. I had my original VIN replaced when I was finished.

 

this could be your problem. if any of the Tranny tables are still in there, they could be causing the problem.

Unless you accidently unhooked the reverse lockout solenoid from the tranny, I'd say you found your problem.
