2000 V70XC cross country transmission slips in reverse only

Looking for any ideas. I’ve flushed transmission twice. Forward gears are perfect. It goes in reverse and will move if it’s on a small slope. Actually it will move if on flat pavement but any throttle will just make it slip. Thanks

I'd check S5 on/off solenoid and its wiring. Need to remove valve body cover...

make sure its engaging fully, have someone put it in R and try to move the actuation lever on top of the trans.
