Default 850 t5 heater middle control **** not working

i have an 850 and the other day i went to adjust the heater control to get the air to blow on the front window. it was really stiff to turn the centre **** in the up right position. so i twisted it with force and it went really loose now the heater control is not working properly the air comes out the main Vents and the **** now comes off easily you can get it to go on the windscreen but it takes 5 mins of messing about with it and the settings are Messed up. and body have any advice on how to fix it?

'93, '94, '95, . . .
Is it automatic (ECC) or Manual (MCC)

Unhappy

its manual without air con. i took it apart yesterday and moved one of the cable that goes to the middle control so it blows on the windscreen again but the other cable which i think lets you put the heaters on the foot well seems to be stuck i have broke the little white plastic stick that the centre k n ob sits on so i could only adjust it by moving the cable. can the middle control be replaced or will i need a full unit?

I haven't had a manual Volvo control apart but I'm guessing you'll need a complete head. I haven't seen any that are modular on other cars and from the photos of a MCC I don't think Volvo's is either.

Maybe someone else will jump in with an idea
