Hello. The P0014 code and hard up shifting condition is a common problem on this engine.
Typically, it is either the solenoid, or the connection on the solenoid. If both of those have been replaced, then the exhaust cam actuator is failing. When these fail, they get stuck in the wrong position and this occurs. It will have to be replaced.

Was driving my h2 at 48 miles per hour when the gear got knocked into reverse by accident and now my H2 will not go in reverse
Hi there. Thanks for contacting us today. If you shifted into reverse while the vehicle was in forwarding motion, it's likely that shift linkage or the reverse gear itself has been damaged. Honestly, without completing an inspection (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/car-is-hard-to-shift-inspection), it's hard...
