It is true that the lever on the cross shaft is free to rotate and then come up hard against the "dog clutch". Either the pin has dropped out or the lever at the bottom of the column has slipped.
The lever on the bottom of the column moves the lever on the cross shaft as it should but fails to turn the cross shaft. I guess I will have to strip down and investigate further. Thanks for the replies. Kevin.
