The heater blows much hotter, which is excellent, but still no heat on AUTO from the vents. My theory is that the little wheel on the center vent that mixes hot air and cold air is broken. There is ZERO reaction when I roll that wheel from hot to cold or cold to hot. Is that a complex system involving multiple servo motors etc?
You're in luck, no servo motors. The wheel just moves a Bowden cable. It's likely either disconnected or broken.
