Shift lever stuck

Post by Ron_Hall »

Hi guys, I have a little problem. Installed my steering column today and now the selecter won't go past the neutral. :cry:
I disconnected the shift lever and it makes no difference. Park, reverse and neutral seem to be ok.
What would be the most obvious thing to look for?

Thanks
Ron
