Cat Lift Trucks (& Caterpillar) VC60D:
No Reverse

Hi Guys. I just bought a Cat VC60DSA serial#4CC00800. It wont go in reverse. With the park brake on I start it and put it in forward all is fine when I release the brake it goes forward. When I put it in neutral it still wants to go forward. When I put it in reverse its like it locks up, like its trying to go forward and reverse at the same time.
I've checked the wiring to the solenoids, all seems to be right. I don't know if the actual solenoid valve is working , They both click when activated but are they working ? I've pulled the valve body off and all the moving parts seem ok as far as I know. Does anyone here have any Ideas of what it could be ? Any manuals would be appreciated as well. Thanks Gary
