Default Orignial T-Maxx won't run in reverse

I have an original 20+year-old T-Maxx that had a gas engine, and I bought a conversion to electric. That's been about 8 years or so from a guy I don't remember his name. I did the retrofit, and it ran extremely well. I parked for about 5 years. So now I bought new 3cell Lipo batterie sand charged them. The truck runs great forward, but not in reverse. The handheld steering controller has a red switch that changes forward or reverse. The throttle is pulled back to run the truck; pushing it forward applies the brakes to stop. The truck will not run backwards. It ran great before parking it.
I need to find out why the red switch isn't giving me reverse.
Thanks for the help
Danny
