Default anyone else have this problem....

When pushing the column for the temp in either direction fully, it bounces back a tad as if on a spring. I can not put my AC, which i never use, to max cold or my heater to max heat, which i really want. I looked inside with a flashlight and could tell the grooves have just been worn down and no longer holding the rod in place. Anyone have a fix for this? I'd love to be able to ride with my windows down at night again.

remove the panel around and below the steering wheel, remove the shifter console, drop the glove box, remove the panel in front of the shifter....up inside of the one in front of the shifter you will see four screws (phillips) which are also bolts(8mm socket) undo those and wiggle the dash component off. or: www.installdr.com will show you.
