this is how the key interacts with the gear cables, usually a plastic clip at the end of the cable breaks or drops off.
sometimes a wobble of the stick helps, also a foot on the brake peddle is involved when selecting a gear so try that also.
the key barrel itself is known to wear and need replacing.
