Check the battery. These cars need a fully charged battery to operate correctly. A load test is the only way to check it. Or if you know how to check the specific gravity of the electrolyte, that will work. These are maintenance free batteries but you can still check specific gravity. After that check the micro-switch for reverse gear.
