Not going into gear 2nd

I've had this problem since around since installing a new OEM clutch with OEM fluids etc.

I have trouble going into 2nd. No grinds etc, just wont go into second sometimes. Doesnt matter if its warmed up or not.

How many miles are on the transmission? Was the clutch pedal adjusted to full travel? DIY or shop?

My guess is your cables need adjustment at the transmission. How long ago did shop install your clutch? Maybe they can adjust cable.

Remove your battery and look at all the mounting setup. Make sure everything was reinstalled right. There is very little to adjust (just slack).

Checked and everything looks good under the hood. Don’t know what else to look for

Get to your clutch slave cylinder and push the piston back into cylinder as hard as you can. Does it slowly go back in or is it solid and won't retract at all?
