BlowerWhine Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 Hi all. Just bought an 08. Had a P0801 reverse inhibit circuit cide. No check engine light, always hard to shift into reverse. Pulled connector off reverse solenoid. Verified good ground from yellow wire. Violet had no 12v. Checked fuse 39 in BJB, good, had 12v keyed on. Disconnected green connector under BJB (rearmost of connectors). Grounded violet-white wire, verified circuit under car was complete. Was stumped at this point. Reassembled, and car would not start. Freaked out at this point! Disassembled again, and paid special attention to pins in that connector. The red paired wire and violet-white wire pins had loose fingers inside. That was my aha! moment. I disassembled the connector and removed those pins. Using a small pick, I carefully bent the fingers inside the pins back out and reassembled everything. It all works well now!!! I am trying to track down replacement pins...will update if I find them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
