Reason: Title 201 0
Have you checked the shift lever on the transmission? See if the shaft has slipped back out a little, or if the lock bolt is even still there.

So, how's this going Bob? It's been a few days. I understand that you have a MANUAL transmission, and that everything operates properly in the forward gears. When you push down on the Reverse button, it still doesn't let you go into reverse?
OK, so folks have had issues with the button just getting a little finicky and not going all the way down. Solved with a LITTLE spray silicon lubricant around the edge and exercise it. Plus, if you don't already, pull in the clutch with your left hand and operate the button with your right thumb. If all of that is ok, check fuse F7. Don't just look at it, but replace it with a good fuse. The reverse actuator and the optional trailer module are the only two things coming off that fuse.
Other wise, you will need to check out this mechanism underneath. Have someone operate the reverse actuator while you watch and see what's going on. Just may need to unplug the connector, spray it with contact cleaner and plug it back in. Possibly a cable adjustment is required, the cable broke, or the actuator may have failed. Highest probability is the button acting up or the fuse. Good Luck.
