Question 1994 Accord LX Fan speed **** travel help

Hey all,

I searched and couldn't find this out so I hope you guys have an answer. Today I was working on a speedo problem in my car. I ended up replacing the instrument cluster and it works. No biggie there.

However, the problem I have now is with the fan speed **** for the air. The lowest fan speed aligns with the word 'off' on the dash. To turn it off, I have to pull up on it so the plastic tab goes over the stopper for it. Same to turn it on speed 4, I have to pull up on the **** so it goes over the stopper. Anyone knows what's up? It almost looks like the ring with the stoppers is turned upside down, but I tried moving it and it doesn't move. Anyone have any ideas?

In comparison, the plastic stoppers in the track that the **** fits in are at 4 and 8, as apposed to the temp control's stoppers which are at 10 and 2. Is there any way to move the ring around? Thanks!

Strange. The actual fan switch (#11) doesn't look like it can spin. Pull off the **** & see if it's been broken & repaired inside where it fits onto the shaft?

Thanks for the reply! I actually saw this after posting. From what I can tell, the part in question isn't on the fan switch itself, but rather it's part of #16 and the specific part is the left-most **** recess between the bezel and the fan switch, but it's brittle and I don't know if I want to try to turn it.
