Transmission failure? Not a Celica but what is your ideas?, only one gear works Options

Hi,
my friends hyundai getz -02 got stuck in gear, think it's the 2nd gear. I can move the stick up and down with no restistans att all (it do stop at the position a let it go) and the gear don't change if the stick is in the upper or lower position. I can't move the stick sidways.

The cables connected to the stick, that you se if you look under the leather cover, is moving so those aren't broken.

Anyone got any idea what it might be???

It may have broken off the transmission side. I'd check under the hood and make sure they haven't come off somehow.

Yes, like supersprynt has said, it may possibly be on the transmission side. It could be the cable linkages from the shifter to the shift linkages on the transmission so do check that out first.

tanx for the comments. My friend hired a pro ad they tought it was the cable but at the transmission side, as you said. Should cost about $700...sucks but she has no option...
