Bob,
When I first bought my 95, which had a sliding knob for temp control, it was very hard to slide. Investigation showed that Newell had used a very short boden cable to connect the controls to the valve. The short cable had to make a pretty hard bend to fit. I resolved the issue by purchasing a much longer cable and actually making a loop de loop. Worked very easy after that. I was able to access that without taking the dash apart.
Obviously, follow the cable from the dash control to the control valve.
The boden cable looks like one of those wire wound cables you would see on a lawn mower throttle. It's called a boden cable because it has unique fittings on the end. If you google "boden cable" you will find many lengths and suppliers available. It took me a long time to find the part some ten years ago because I simply did not know what it was called.
