I'm more inclined to think this is a climate control problem, but spinning the wheel still adjusts the air speed. But its always cold air. Subsequently, my a/c never worked, so I'm only getting an unchanging chilly air flow out of the air ducts.

Would you know if the climate control unit can be dysfunctional with heat selections and also still work with the air flow? thanks
Yes the climate control can be dysfunctional and fans still work.
When I mentioned disconnecting the mono - disconnect and drive and see if you have heat.
There are some threads on soldering the CCU - however if (when) you eventually replace you probably will not get your core charge back.
I am sure when it becomes heat time here - I will have to hit the monovalve with a rubber hammer to unstick it for the cooler time of year. The inside cylinder is very close tolerance and it tends to stick after being off (closed) all year.
