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.
