selector cables have popped off the at the gear box end most likely? a common problem! replacement is a permenant cure, but there are a couple of short term fixes! pvf tape wrapped around the ball and then force the cable end back on! can be done but difficult to get the right amount of tape of the ball?
pop the cable back on and tie wrap it in place!
good luck if you go own down the DIY replacement cable route? it's a bit of a pig of a job!
