Honda HRX217K6VKA Problems

[JackS2000]

The lawnmower is self propelled, with a drive control on it. A week ago while I was mowing, the mower was having trouble propelling itself, so I pressed a bit harder on the drive control and I believe something snapped.
The drive control moves freely now without effecting the mower, and the back wheels feel like they're enganged without propelling themselves (the wheels move forwards but they don't move backwards). It still mows but it's heavy to push.

I think it has something to do with the drive cable or some belt things, but I'm not an engineer and I don't know how any of this works. I can take pictures or get a video if I need to. Any help on what to look for/replace?

JackS2000- check parts #18 and #15 under the handlebar assembly. I had something similar happen to me last spring and replacing those parts fixed my HRX.
