my temp door lever is stuck on full. should i care?

[bullheimer]

my temp lever is stuck on Hot (well it doesnt say Hot but it's all the way down) on my 62 leBamba. i mean lesabre. anyway. if i wanted half assed heat i'd put the blower on low, not add outside air. ? full hot is fine by me. my mechanism is seized up behind my little access door to that cable. i doubt anybody makes a new one. it could be the cable is frozen. todays first mission: remove the cable and see if i need the $50 new blower switch......

anybody know where the resistor is?
