Default Help with fixing heater door.

Ok, I know But I pulled car out of storage and the heat and ac don't work .....

Unless I manually move the flapper in the evaporator box . It stays suck in the half way position no matter what setting I choose but like I said,
it works either way by hand but what do I need to replace or look at that controls this damn flapper? Always something!!!!

Car is an 89.

Not unusual for the plastic clip that connects the motor linkage to the door to break or come loose
