Stuck in 1st gear

‘05 997 Cab. Leaving a light a few blocks from the house I suddenly lost the ability to shift out of 1st. No unusual noises. Shifter just quit. It will move straight forward and back but not side to side. Feels like it’s not attached to anything. Is there a pin that could have come loose? Any help appreciated. Was supposed to leave on a little trip tomorrow but I’m guessing that will be delayed. Thanks.

Your shifter is cable operated, if they become detached at either end, this is what you get.  Try looking at the transmission end first.

Thanks for the quick reply. Turned out to be a broken cable.
