climate control

Just got back from a 2K mile trip to Texas w/ the new 200 wagon. No
problems other than the rear diff seals I was ignoring left puddles,
so.. well... refused to be ignored. Ran great, consumed no oil, ran at
any speed I wanted over the passes, yada, yada...
BUT
The %4#&^@#% climate control refused to heat and cool without going to
temp extremes. Diagnostics indicated only temp sensor error (from the
4-way temp sensor, I am guessing). Seems like the airflow is going
somewhere other than the dash, floor or top vents.

Does anyone know of a source for the European dash controls for a '89-91
200, so the system could be run more 'manually' ?  Seems like even when
the system is working, it doesn't work very well and runs the compressor
in "Bi-level, Auto, and Def" mode even when it is 35° F outside. I know
a few possible sources so I will check, but the GM climate control
should stay in the Cadillacs where it belongs.
