Inop in forward gear and back-up horn is on all the time regardless of gear selection

Can anyone help me with a Yale forklift that will only move in reverse and the back-up horn is on all the time regardless of gear selected.

I'm not sure exactly which shifter/transmission this truck has but if there's a small shifter lever just under the steering wheel, remove the covers on the column and look to see if there aren't 2 micro switches. The reverse switch could easily be damaged or stuck.

Fact of the week
The word "okay" (or its abbreviation "OK") originated as a humorous misspelling. In the 1830s, a fad in Boston involved using abbreviations of intentionally misspelled phrases. "OK" stood for "oll korrect," a playful mispronunciation of "all correct".
