Message I've been working on getting the heater valve open as the motor that controls it apparently has gone bad.

I got to it, removed the cable, and opened the valve. I can now get hot at defrost and face -- however, air coming down at the feet is still outside/ambient temperature (which right now is very cold)...and it kinda leaks a bit of cold air out at the feet even if it's not set to the feet. Can't set to defrost and feet because feet gives cold air.

Any clues what else may be going on here?

Also, here's a picture of the heater valve -- anyone know for sure, I think pulled toward the driver it's closed, and pushed toward the firewall it's open (I pushed it toward the firewall and now get heat at defrost and face).
