Yeah, that's what happens when it dies usually, it gets stuck in the hot air mode. But what I was hoping was the case was that you had the hot side sealed off and the working valve was pre-emptively tied over like some people suggest.

In that case, if the knot broke, the valve would spring back to the warm air side, which was sealed off and would explain why when it warmed up it went back over to cold.

But that's obviously not the case.

Hmm...
