Check your idle speed if its to high there is no reverse. I cant remember exactly but it's around the 2000 rpm area that it stops working.Starts fine, runs fine, was working and just stopped working, any ideas?
2014 Proclimb

We’ll keep us up to speed on this one. Never heard of just nothing happening. Usually it’s slow idle issue and sled dies.
Im thinking it’s gotta be the push button failed. And that button is linked to the kill switch and or tether if or however you installed.
2 stroke, We don’t have an actuator motor in a chain case like the above guys 4 stroke. It’s a full motor running backwards. I’d mess with the switch first

Great advice guy's, his sled is a 2014. YES it has an reverse actuator and NO it doesn't reverse the motor.
Idle will have no effect on the sleds ability to go into reverse as it uses an actuator to engage a reverse gear.
One... check your switch, clean and pack with dielectric. These switches are not sealed and it is common to get water and ice that can actually damage the switch.
I always pack these switches completely with grease this helps prevent water from entering.
Two...Check that actuator motor as mentioned by Lunch_box, the armature is prone to corrosion, easy fix, just need to clean it.
Reverse engine capability in the 800s has been around since 2010 on the M series.Great advice guy's, his sled is a 2014. YES it has an reverse actuator and NO it doesn't reverse the motor.

My apology it appears certain models had the reverse engine capability in 2014.

Haha, yes i realized that now. For some weird reason my brain fart thought the Suzuki didn't reverse, its weird cause my 17 reverses the engine. Its been a long night K.
Maybe i'll just go back to bed now.
Been sip’n grandpas cough syrup? Lol. Good chit
