You need to take the selector off the top of the box, the shaft siezes on them, get plenty wd40 into it and work it free, when your at it make sure the 10mm pinch bolt on the inside of the selector mechanism is tight, if its not, it drops out and goes through the casing. if your still not getting gears youll need a new cable (usually the one that controls fore and aft movement)

You also need to check inside the selector box, 'take off the cables and remove the selector. on the shaft there is a sleeve which id full of tiny bearings this can brake and seize the shaft as posted above plenty of grease and it will be fine you dont need to replace the bearing bros van has been going for 4 years now since he had the same problem. hope that helps.
