Hello,

It sounds like the issue could be due to a faulty shifter cable.
Are you able to engage in reverse?

A loose shift cable can create this non engagement issue. It could be due to stretched components or broken brackets.

First try to adjust the shift cable. If the adjustment does not work or if there are broken components, then it will need to be replaced.

I have attached diagrams showing the replacement as well as the adjustment procedure.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
