If you are still unable to shif t to
Reverse, apply the parking brake,
and turn the ignition key to
ACCESSORY (I) or LOCK (0).
With the clutch pedal still pressed,
start the engine.
The manual transmission has
lockout so you cannot accidentally
shift from Fifth to Reverse instead of
Sixth while the vehicle is moving. If
you cannot shif t to Reverse when the
vehicle is stopped:
With the clutch pedal pressed,
move the shift lever to the first/
second gear side of the Neutral
gate, then shif t to Reverse. Press the clutch pedal, and shif t to
Reverse.
If you need to use this procedure to
shif t to Reverse, your vehicle may be
developing a problem. Have the
vehicle checked by your dealer.
If you exceed the maximum speed
f or the gear you are in, the engine
speed will enter into the tachometer’s
red zone. If this occurs, you may f eel
the engine cut in and out. This is
caused by a limiter in the engine’s
computer controls. The engine will
run normally when you reduce the
rpm below the red zone. The Engine
Speed Limiter only limits engine
speed when the accelerator is used.
Attempting to reduce engine speed
by shif ting into a lower gear f rom a
high speed can seriously damage the
engine.
Bef ore downshif ting, make sure the
engine will not go into the
tachometer’s red zone.
