Default A/C Problem

Hi – Here in AZ the weather is starting to heat up, mid 90’s today. I noticed that my a/c is blowing cold air on the passenger side and warm air on the drivers side. Anybody know what causes this and how to fix it? I do have the dual zone climate control. Thanks!

If it wasn't blowing cold air at all, then I would look into adding refer, and also finding out where the leak is,(refrigerant doesn't just get low for no reason) if you are low on refer, it had to escape from somewhere.

I am more interested in the fact you are getting cold air out of one side of your ductwork and not the other. Damper actuation problem maybee?

Let us know the results.
