Hi guys, got automatic, 6 cyl, transmission runs forward fine, it does engage in reverse but no movement, you can feel it slowly shift into Reverse, if you press the gas, it will creep backwards a few feet and stops, any ideas greatly appreciated, thanks.

Hello,

Can I ask if the reverse lights are working? If not I would replace the gear range sensor on the side of the transmission here is a diagram to help. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know what happens.
