Default 1993 350L Dies when put into reverse HELP

When this atv is shifted into reverse it wants to die . It will go forward fine and does not die . Then of course if you try to rev it up when putting it into reverse it grinds . Any ideas as to what the problem is ?
Thanks so Much,
D.

No, I haven't been using the overide button . Should I try pushing it in when I put it into reverse and see if it keeps it from dieing ?
Otherwise no, I haven't been using it.
Thanks,
D.

Your problem is the reverse rev limiter black box. You can unhook it or replace it.

It is located under the headlight. It is a small black box next to the CDI box.
