    Ive had the same problem, my problem being the lever moving, but the fork end being stuck. I put some lube on it, and it started working again.. If you look where the remote cable atttaches to the forks, there should be a little cap. If the cap isnt fitted, you should be able to see the lock out cable. If it is fitted, remove it and then put some lube on the area surrounding the cable.

    If both ends of the cable are working, either take it to your lbs or get some new forks
