So recently the temperature control dial stopped working on my 2016 Trax and it was always blowing heat. I took the glove box out and tore apart under the dash on the passenger side to gain access to the gears attached to the control that blends the hot/cold air. I manually rotated the gear so that cold air would blow. I had ordered a service manual from Quality Service Manuals online. Of course the drawings don't match or provide any additional insight. I've attached two pictures. One zoomed out where you can see the plastic gear I rotated on the left. One zoomed in. I was originally thinking I'd be able to replace the controller attached to the gear, but I can't find a part number anywhere online for anything other than the gear itself. In theory the issue could be electronic in the dial itself or the controller on the cam. I'd just replace the less expensive controller to start if there was no easy way to troubleshoot further.
Has anyone else come across this issue?
