Stupid AOL decision but you cannot do anything. Welcome to the club of
AOL victims.

The zone is indeed broken:

% check_soa 120.156.124.66.in-addr.arpa
There is no name server running on dns1.light-family.com
ns2.4servers.com is not authoritative for 120.156.124.66.in-addr.arpa
ns1.4servers.com is not authoritative for 120.156.124.66.in-addr.arpa

No, you should put all your records in one zone,
120.156.124.66.in-addr.arpa.

No. Check your logs to see why 120.156.124.66.in-addr.arpa was not
loaded (I assume dns1.light-family.com is your own server: BIND is
currently not running).
