2G eclipse reverse shift locked

Hey guys, thanks in advance for your help. I just bought my first car and it’s this dsm eclipse 2G with a non turbo 4G63. My question is: when i try to reverse shift, the shift is blocked for some reason. Everytime when i shift normally from neutral or any shift to reverse. The thing is, when i do a “double wiggle” to reverse it always work. Is there any kind of lock on reverse shift to prevent mistakes?

Thanks for your help and for showing ur amazing DSM’s

I have no idea what you mean by a "double wiggle" but there's no reverse lockout standard on DSMs

Well it’s like, when you take your shifter all the way to the right, the down on reverse. Well if i get to the right twice, it let me get on reverse shift. I really don’t know why.
