The 2 mix buttons (heat-def and vent-heat) are stuck on my 96 Civic. Is
there any way of freeing stuck heater control buttons, or am I looking at a
new unit ($150 or so)?

Thanks.

Scott

Get one from the salvage yard, if you have to replace it. Did you try
some silicne spray? bob

was it a soda or greasy hands after eating a cheeseburger?

clean it with just little bit of water, then use alcohol.
dont think there is any need for a new unit unless those buttons are broken
inside.
