Bruno Lenco shifting help

[rhamm1321]

Coming from a couple decades of glides and turbos, I have a used Bruno Lenco and having trouble.

I cannot shift to forward and reverse. I engage the trans brake but still no luck. Idle is down very low. After searching on google, seems that I should not be holding the brakes when shifting, but does that really make that much of a difference?

more info would help but some things to look at: with the engine not running will the reverser unit shift ---
you may have to uncouple the lenco from the brt and check shift function seperatly .....you may have a false neutral from something other than the reverser.... good luck.
P.S. the lenco reverser does not like shock loads!!! no shaft movement...trans brake on to shift from foward to reverse.
