To set your shutter mode go to Shooting Menu 5  (red 5), select Shutter type and set to MS or MS + ES to ensure you are getting the mechanical shutter when you are using a shutter speed of 1/4000 or below.



Now make sure your shutter speed is 1/180 or below, as the mechanical shutter only syncs with flash at 1/180 or below.

Your issue is more likely that you're over the sync speed than being in Electronic Shutter only mode.
