Rep Power: 0 1995 Honda Civic Dx Heater Valve
Hey guys,
I was doing some looking around about why my heater/air conditioning selector wasn't working. I followed the cable under the dash, and I see it moving when I change it from heat to a/c. Inside the engine, where the valve is, the cable does not move the valve open or closed, almost like it is stuck. I replaced the valve with a brand new one (glad I did because the old one was cracked) and the cable still does not open or close the valve in the position it needs to be in when selecting heat or a/c on the dash.
Any way to fix this or figure out why its not working still? I thought that after replacing the valve this would fix the issue of it possibly being frozen inside.
Thanks for any and all help.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Cable moves.....but is the cable housing also moving at either end? The housing (or outer sheath) must be anchored by its little clip on each end.
