I then stuck a long thin screwdriver through the hole, located the foam strips and the door itself. With some gentle nudging, it unstuck and opened to the heat position. A piece of black electrical tape over the hole finished the "repair". Cost 0$ Without your picture this would not have been possible. Again, many thanks!
My Ford dealership would have fixed it "properly" for about $600.00
