I finally got a buggy I bought dbiky buggy but the shifter will not lock out reverse does anybody know how to remedy this situation thanks for any info

See if the 2 rail lockout plate is in place.
Gotta have that.
If so, long rail goes to passenger side and up.

the lock out plate is in but when you push the button on the shifter it is not raising the pen. And you can still hit reverse

Cable in shifter is broke it appears.
Still shouldn't hit reverse unless the pin is stuck in the up position.

It will move it maybe an 1/8th inch it acts like the cable is stretched. Is there a rebuild kit for this shifter?

Not that I know of.
Maybe you can get it apart and see what's up with it.

Make sure that the lockout plate is not in upside down or on the wrong side. This is a common mistake that people make when putting the shifter together. also you can slide the shifter adjustment back and forth until it works right. If after you check all these things and it still won't work right. The only thing that I would do is put in a stock Beetle shifter assembly. Over the years I have found that nothing seems to work as well as the old stock shifter.
