How do you fix the vent control knob on a 1996 dodge neon its stuck on the defrost setting?

The cable or the vent door is probably binding. Take out the control panel first to see if the problem is there, then trace the cable down and see if you can manually move the vent door. If not, you may have to take the duct apart or replace it. I would suggest disconnecting the battery for a half hour before working on this so you don't accidently set off the air bags.

Your 1994 dodge ram 1500 is stuck in defrost mode and will not change to any other setting?
The rotary switch uses the engine vacuum system to operate the diverter "flap". If it is stuck in defrost mode then you have a vacuum problem... It can either be from the source (not generating vacuum), or in the transmission of the vacuum (the small plastic tubes). These tubes are prone to dry-rot/cracking causing them to loose their capacity to transmit the negative pressure.
