91 Diablo not going into reverse gear

Hi All,

 

My 91 Diablo won't go into reverse gear. I am unable to push the shifter stick down or make it slide into the reverse gear but all other gears work fine, it seems something is blocking the shifter stick to glide into reverse gear on the shift gate only (As in the shifter stick slides easily in 1-5 gear in the shift gate and they work fine at least 1-3rd gear I tried while driving). Any suggestion to what could be causing this issue and what can be done to resolve this is much appreciated

 

Thanks

Josh

Chipster.... Thank you for responding... There is nothing wrong with the reverse gear or transmission (THANK GOD). I totally forgot about the Lamborghini's crude reverse lockout system for the shifter..... lol.... the shim on the gated plate. The issue I have is that I am unable to push the stick down to clear the reverse lockout shim, I thought the spring is broken but I am unable to pull up on the shifter as well so not sure what is broken in the shifter box, I need to figure out how to get inside the shifter box, from what I have read I need to pull it down from under the car. There has to be a better way from inside the cabin.

 

Thanks

When I snapped my shift rod, I replaced by getting at the shift box from underneath car. Believe there were 4 Allen head screws holding the box together. You have have had debris get in there.
