Ned,
The original cables---the knob had a hole in the side, (bottom) of the shaft
of the knob itself. If you push a small screwdriver blade into the hole, it
releases an internal clip, and the knob can be pulled off.
--However, on many replacement cables, the knob ahs no hole in it, and the
knob is permanently attached to the end of the cable.

I am trying to free up the fresh air control cable. I removed the end under
the hood and held it up and dripped penetrating oil down the wire for a few
hours. No luck. I now see in the parts list that the knob is a separate
piece. How is that removed so I can remove that end from the dashboard?
