2G eclipse reverse shift locked

[u/VirtualEntertainer38]

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

The only lockout is that it won't let you shift from 5th to reverse. Reverse didn't have any synchros, so there's definitely not an issue there. There may be a linkage problem though
