So I picked up this guy last Friday, and his been driving great. The other day, I went to start it, started it, then went to put it into reverse to back up, and it wouldn't move into reverse. I thought it was one of the coins that was lodged in there, but to no avail. Now, the only thing I can come up with is I pushed a push in lock that located near the floorboards on the drivers side, located just below the shifter. I can't however for the life of me locate any info on this phantom lock. If anyone has any info before I end up wasting money on a lock smith, please send me a message or respond here. Thanks in advance. Justin.

I have no idea what that "lock" may be. Can you post a picture of it?
