See if the cable is not off or broken at the transmission end, check also if the belt is OK, then come back.

Check cable first. Confirm it is moving the change lever on the transmission. Here are a few pages from the shop manual...

Note the slotted fitting at the transmission end of the cable; this is to allow adjustment as the cable wears/stretches over time.
