No Reverse 2008 EX Auto

Just did a trans swap on a blown trans in an 08 ex Auto. After the swap, I drove it around, shifts fine, no codes but I have no reverse. I've checked the fluid level, it's fine. I changed out the shift solenoid hoping it was that and nothing. When I put it in reverse it acts like neutral. I don't hear any engagement like if I put it in D. All forward gears engage and work. Hoping it's not internal, any other ideas?

Does the cluster show it's in reverse?

Did the transmission come with a warranty? I think that's the road this is going down.

Re: No Reverse 2008 EX Auto

Unfortunately I don't have any other ideas. Solenoids are for shifting between forward gears so no effect on reverse. The only other input is the shift level which wouldn't read the proper gear if something were wrong. I guess triple check fluid level otherwise I'd be calling about that warranty.
