Hey, my first car was a '67 Mustang. A Fastback, 289 4spd that I replaced with a 351W that I built up. Ah, the days of simple cars. That car had zero accessories, the only thing driven off the crank was the alternator.
Don't be scared of your Saab. Yes, it is complex, but with a good set of manuals, tools, a multi-meter and a good dose of DIY sense most repairs can be done at home, given enough time.
There are something like 20 volumes, but they can be purchased individually, or you can get a complete CD for ~$250. The manual for this job is vol 8.3, p/n 356915.
To remove the control panel, first remove the panel on the right side of the console, then press the control panel out from the rear. Unplug connectors as needed. There is a c-clip thing that holds the temp. cable on the actuator. That cable actuates the blend door at the lower edge of the console piece that you've removed.
Highlights of re-fitting:
1-Refit the control cable. The cable should be positioned above the control shaft.
2-press on the securing clip
3-refit control panel
4-refit the wire on the lever of the air-blending flap.
5-turn the heating knob to full cooling
6-hold the knob securely and at the same time push the control lever of the air-blending flap forward as far as possible.
7-press into place the clip holding the calbe sheathing to the climate control unit
8-check that the heater knob can be turned to both end positions without springing back
9-refit the panel on the console
I would recommend ordering the manual, if you can wait for it to come in.
