Default Repair/replace HVAC switch

My trusty phone mount became dismounted and fell…

unfortunately it fell and hit my fan switch. It’s loose, visibly broken. It will rock the fan up in speed but not down.

is this a remove and replace whole thing (kind of a pain since I have four zone) or is it possible to salvage the rocker switch from another unit?

Bueller? Anyone taken apart this HVAC before? The switch will operate FAN UP but not FAN down and i can't immediately see why not.

I have replaced the control unit but I have never disassembled one. It seems to me if you are going to have to buy a new/used unit to replace only the switch you may as well just use the new/used unit instead of dissecting two to fix one. I have several good pics on how to pull the unit out if you have never done that.
