2001 Saturn SC1 HVAC stuck on defrost

z5500x3 · 11-21-2014, 06:12 PM

Hi, a few months I got into a minor car accident when some dude ran a stop sign. A few days later I went to turn the defroster on and it's been stuck on there ever since then. I can only turn the knob to feet and it won't even go on to vent. Hot air blows a little bit out of the vents and no cold air will blow out of them. It's very strange.

Please help, thanks

Broken cable, attachments, gear mechanism? The temperature knob controls the temperature door through a cable from the HVAC control assembly to the HVAC module. The mode knob controls the various mode positions by a cable from the HVAC control to the HVAC module.
