ok, its a 98 se sport v6 with the manual transmission. Right now the car is stuck in first gear. When you move the shifter around there is nothing there, you can move it side to side when it should be in gear. I could tell right away when it happened that something wasn't right just from the feel of moving the shifter. Anyways, thanks for the help with locating the spot where the cables come into the transmission, i will be checking that out tomorrow.
