I had that happen

I had that problem with my Aerostar ('91) with it not wanting to engage in reverse. After that problem, it would not shift gears right and 2nd was the highest gear it would shift to. The transmission is kaput, shot. It needs to be rebuilt. I had mine rebuilt and it runs fine. Knock on wood.
