try checking the fresh air/recirculate blend doors. the cable operating this is just held by a clip also used to set an adjustment. the cable might have fallen off or the cable is misadjusted

usual problem ng old cars, baka sira na yun mga foams sa paligid ng butas, next time ,ag pa A/C cleaning ka pa shut off mo na permanently.

what the shadow is saying is to lock the shutter control to fresh air mode. before you do this, make sure you replace the foam seal at the blend door lip. a good substitute for the worn out foam seal is a window sill strip you can purchase from ace hardware. in this case, you don't have to seal it shut anymore
