Heater won't work

Everytime I turn my temp. dial to hot it makes a clicking noise...I googled the problem and seen it was a "heater control?" If anyone could help I would really appreciate it...Thanks

the hot **** controls a electric motor that moves a hot air mixing door inside the duct. not uncommon for the door or arm on the door to break with extended use. Old style and new style "blend doors" vary by age of the truck. Like ragtop said, what year? Or you can search for "blend door" on the site.
