Some people are so picky about their heat! :)

A while back I looked at my Bentley to see about similar
work under the dash.  When the first step was to drill out
the breakaway bolts for the steering column, I figured it
would take something crucial for me to take that little
project on.  Good luck.

This at least should be easy.  All the cables can be traced
without too much trouble after you remove the plastic heater
core cover, fuse box bracket and glove compartment.  It may
be as simple as a clip missing at the end of the cable.
Northern Illinois isn't all that warm either!
