Randomly my front shift wouldn't go into 3rd on a ride and when I get home to check I disconnect the cable and it won't shift into 3rd gear

Any ideas?

I once 'somehow' got a grass seed wedged in my slx shifter inside the actual cam which stopped me getting full selection. At this time of year - especially if you've been riding around tall grasses and crops - if you're half decent at wielding a screwdriver, a strip down may have you sorted.

However, before you get too involved - I assume you've pulled the cable and checked that the cable hasn't slipped and you're getting shift 2-3 operating on rings 1-2...

yep something jammed in there is most likely.

Is it one of those shifters with the little adjuster for switching to a double instead of a triple?
