95 Accord Heater question
That was the story on my daughter's '93. Apparently the valve had been stubborn enough to get the cables out of whack in the heater box. Pulling the cover off the side (near the passenger's left foot, comes off and goes back on easily) revealed all the workings. Knowing that the cables are adjusted by reclamping the housings, it is all pretty obvious.

as mike says, a cable's been mispositioned. go underneath the console to the foot wells and make sure all the cable have full travel at each end of their dials. one of mine kept slipping [i kept kicking it] until i cable-tied it into a slightly different route from factory. now all is well. simple d.i.y. fix.
========================================
You are on the right track, as others have said. _IF_ you find that any cables are binding, use LockEase (graphite) rather than anything dino-based. It won't gum up in the cold. Cables are best left alone, but our first Odyssey needed lube. Drop the blower motor too (unplug connector, remove three screws) and use compressed air while you're under there. The cover on the lower end of the motor comes off with two screws and you can blow about 1/2 ounce of carbon dust from the brushes area, which will help the motor run cooler, longer. Don't oil the motor unless you know what you're doing. There are pictures of the heat 'mixer box' (I think that's it's name) on the web. I used to have it. . . . Same as '95 Odyssey I'm sure.

Thank you to all who posted. I'll have a go at it tomorow. Weather here is unseasonably warm. Will be a nice way to spend some time outdoors. bob
