+1 on the cable, if it didnt snap theres something going on there. Probably are going to have to seperate the motor from the trans and mess with it.

The ratcheting paw is probably striped. You'll have to try and get under there to have a look. If you pull up on the pedal and push it back down, does it slip again?
