Default NO Reverse lock-out.

Has anyone else experienced a NO reverse lock-out situation? The weather was great here (Wilmington, DE) so I took her out of storage for a ride. A couple times during the cruise, I went to shift into 5th, and actually went into the reverse slot and made grinding noises like I didn't know how to drive a stick shift! So, while coasting to a stop, I put the shifter over there, and I KNOW it was over too far to the right. I have an '03 with no mods to engine or trans.
Thanks in advance.

I would check the solenoid on the transmission and check the connection. Any codes?

I had this happen once also...haven't driven much since then so is there a way to test this without doing any damage?
