Default 03 Rx 330- climate control buttons stuck

So my climate control buttons are stuck. On the driver side, the button only raises the temperature while the passenger only lowers temperature. The dealership told me that they can only replace the whole system to fix.

So, has anyone had this issue or ever removed buttons from the dashboard? I would like to take back control of my a.c. in the car. Thanks!

You can always replace the entire Climate Control unit, Ebay, Wreckers, not a difficult DIY. If you have Nav, it may be a little more pricey.
You can also try to pull the one you have apart although the broken parts may be difficult to find.

Thanks for the advice. Managed to just pry the button to find the silicone pad underneath deteriorating. Took a pencil and manually brought the temperature down to max cold. I'll just leave it like that for now.
