Post 2003 Honda Accord, a/c selector will not work

I can turn on the A/C and have it blowing, but the vents will only stay on FACE and will not change to anything else no matter what you do.

I am not an expert, please use layman terms when replying with suggestions.

it use to work just fine, all of a sudden it stopped blowing air on face first, i just bumped on the top with hand it worked...but it will just work for face....

Went to tire plus local mechanic - he was not able to figure what's the issue, he thinks blend door actuator may be broken....but wasn't sure, and didn't gave any estimate....

Any help or guidance would be appreciated!

Thanks,
AptSap

Does this have the "Automated" Controls, can't remember. If so I thing there is a post in the DIY section on how to get the HVAC codes.

2003 LX had manual, 2003 EX had auto climate (I think). Still, the method to get codes might work either way.

Its Automatic gear. 2003 LX 4 CYD. Though it shows it might have 6cd changer it actually is single cd changer.

I tried checking the HVAC code on the link you told. But the panel over there is different from mine. Attached is the image copy my panel

I was referring to automatic climate control, not automatic transmission. Try that method anyway, it might work with your manual climate control.
