Check the bush under the ball of the gear shifter, these break and you sometimes loose some movement on the selector (won't go in or out of gear) if this is ok you may have a broken de-tent spring , this is a spring and ball that locks out gears so you wont select 2 gears at the same time. If this is so, the box will have to be removed to repair.
