driving along in my 2.0L fwd transit x reg could not get 1 st or reverse gears notice the blue cable had broke, purchase another fitted it cannot get reverse and a bit crunchie trying to 4th ,looked in manuals saying to get both cables in neutrals can get the grey cable as it got a locking plate under the leaver to put a blot in but how do i find neutral for the blue?
thankyou cdc for the advice as soon as ford is open i will get the the parts and let you know of the out come, and happy new year thanks again.

the selector rod on the top of the gearbox selector housing is bad for seizing on these and am just wondering if this has caused your cable to break,the housing is held on with six 10mm bolts,remove reverse switch wiring and breather hose and it should lift off,you can then try the selectors by hand,inside the housing are two needle roller bearings which seize up and the top oil seal which you will see when you remove the housing,have these at hand before you start the job,that is if this is your problem,worth a look,good luck
