530 Volvo D-12 Port engine won’t reverse
I have re-calibrated the controls and that didn’t seem to do anything. It’s experiencing a problem both in the flybridge and the interior helm as well. The only thing I Can think of is the day before I crawled around that engine to replace my gray water sump pump in front of the port engine. I am wondering if maybe I bumped something or where to look for a loose connection etc.
If anyone has any quick tips on where to look or what to check I would greatly appreciate it. I have a feeling it’s a connection or Something easy… Or at least I hope it is!

Re: 530 Volvo D-12 Port engine won’t reverse
So I can be sure I am understanding what ur saying...are u saying I can manually touch the red end and turn it to test engagement? That would also mean I could take the forward one that is working and put it in the reverse spot and test to confirm the reverse will work correct? If it works then I just need to replace the part and get a sore one like u suggested:)
Know where I can buy them? Thanks again!
