Fan Setting Dial Blocked

Post by SpaceCow »

I had the faceplate around my head unit popped off while working on it and set a little figure in the vent for god knows what reason. As my luck goes, I forgot about him and next time I went downhill he tumbled into the guts of my climate control. Now he’s blocking the flap that lets me control the fan settings and I can’t turn on my defroster. It wasn’t a huge problem, but then I got a ton of rain and the humidity fogged up my windshield and I had to drive with my head out the window. Taking apart the dash is pretty intimidating to me, and I don’t want to explode myself with an airbag. Is my best option to go under the dash on the drivers side and cut into it to try and free up the flap? I have plenty of duck tape for repairing it after.
