Thanks Guys- Was going crazy because the mechanical assembly fell off and was hiding behind the housing...until I saw these photos, I would have given up...but keep digging around until I found it. Happy Yaris Owner.

This very issue happened to me last night on my 2010 Yaris 4 door hatchback. I'm kinda heavy handed at times. In the aforementioned photos , do these dash panels (where the fan speed and recirculation knob is) "pop" off easily? Pull straight out or push panels in slightly to get them too release??? TIA

Yes. Just pull straight back starting with the bottom corners.

I haven't started disassembly yet. Any clue as to why the mechanism / cable maufunctions ?. Is there a screw that needs a bit of lock tight applied?. TIA

No. The cable carrier assembly just snaps into place. The issue is that if the cable or what it drives binds and you force the cable, you pop the carrier out.

Thanks everyone for the help and pictures. My issue ended up being the actual flap being stuck and not allowing it to move. Taking out the glove box, following the cable to figure out where the mechanism was and moving it manually cleared up whatever gunk had been accumulating and allowed the dial to move normally. Attached some pictures of that in case anyone was interested.IMG_0380.JPGIMG_0381.JPG

I’ve had this problem now for a while ...I HOPE THIS HELPS!!!

Inside my glove compartment where the flap is for the vent , it had a wiring harness cable that fell in front of the flap ... when the glove box is closed it was pushing against the wires that fell
In front of the vent flap...


Try opening the glove box and then try to flip the vent ... if it flips easy , pop the glove box out and check to see if there is anything impending the vent .


That was my fix for a tight vent cable...
