I've not seen this problem after jumop starting.
But, the codes could be due to a bad battery.

I had the map code and hard reverse thing happen in my camaro awhile back. Check the fuse under the hood for the map/maf sensor because it's probably blown. If I remember right the reverse lockout solonoid or whatever it is is on the same fuse.

So now after replacing that fuse it is considerably easier to shift into reverse? I almost have to use two hands to shift mine into reverse..... I'll bet my fuse is blown too..

Can you tell me what # fuse to look for under the hood? Is it 19 or 16. I am having the same problem with reverse.

ALGZ/06,
Could you please tell me what # Fuse you replaced under the hood. I still can not find the correct MAF/MAP reverse lockout fuse.

also if you are having trouble getting into reverse try to shift it into 4th before u goto reverse, it helps alot and there is no struggle at all.

Number 19. It is a 10 amp fuse. If you want to get technical a Z06 is a MN12.
