Heat Always On 200

My '84 242 (non turbo) heater is always on (not the fan... the air is always _hot_). I read about the 700 series fix for 'Heater Won't Completely Shut Off Hot Air' but after removing my glovebox I think the 240 is different. The Haynes manual diagrams are terrible and I can't seem to figure it out. From what I can see the hot/cold slider is operating the cable and attached to a flap which seems to go through its entire range of movement. Sorry for all the technical terms ;-)

This board has been very good to me in the past and I know someone else has had the same problem... any ideas?

Thanks again!

-John
