I know the solenoid is working because I had to energize it to get it locked into the pawl.

OK, I just pulled the transmission out of the car. It's on the jack stand and believe me the first thing I did was see if it is working. On the jack stand, I put it in first, turn the input shaft and the output goes in the same direction. Put it into reverse and the output shaft turns the opposite direction. It's working on the jack stand, but not in the car. Something wrong with the car. It' in the throw out bearing because clutch works and car moves forward. Solenoid and governor out of transmission now.
