Need help with gear selector

The gear selector needle stopped moving with the lever yesterday and is stuck pointing at low 1. I looked at the brass screws I've seen mentioned on here about this, and they are still tight. What else can I check?

Can you move the lever? I guess maybe the wire broke? Look under the dash for a little gear wheel and see if there is still tension on it.

The lever moves fine and will select any gear needed; you just have to feel what gear you're in since the needle won't move. Everything I can see underneath seems to move OK, so whatever is broken must be hidden.
