Open the bonnet and locate the cable on the heater box, try and manualy move the arm / link to shut off the valve and give it a soaking in wd 40 keep working it on / off or open / closed until it frees off

Remove heater cable from heater box, then test if "dial" is free.
Suspect it will be, if so fault with heater box/hot/cold flap.
Heater box will need removing to fix.
May as well do the heater box mod upgrades while its out, plenty on here if you care to search...

For a quick fix, where the cable meets the heater box, spray some wd40 down the hole and this will hopefully free the flap.
