Post Clicking noise when a/c runs

I have a 2000 Honda Odyssey (147k miles). While the general condition of the van is very good I have the following issue:Clicking noise when a/c runs:

Whenever the a/c adjusts up/down I hear a constant clicking noise under the glove comparment. I looked under it and noticed that a mechanical arm was failing to engage / lock itself in position. This does not happen when the thermostat is set to < 70 or > 72. Does this part need replacement/adjustment? How much would it cost?
