Truck does not downshift?

Hey guys, when i first got my truck it did not downshift, i found that the cable was unhooked, and i hooked it up and it would downshift, now it wont downshift again. when i go under the truck and slide the cable, it does not return to stock position, it just sticks. how do i fix this? and how do i adjust the cable?
thanks.

Try to soak the cable in PB blaster or WD 40 from the top of the cable and let it soak in for awhile. As far as the adjustment I can't help you out on that.
