Default Strange Problem-Need Help

Went to dinner with wife last night run A/C going up. My 98 has automatic/dual zone temp controls. I set mine lower than hers, both worked fine. We ate and started home-her side was putting out cold air but my side will only put out warm air.I reset everything on my side to lowest temp still warm air. What is wrong??

Pull your codes. You'll probably find a 361 or 363 code. If so, clear the code(s) which will cause the actuator to test itself. If the code comes back, you've lost a gear in there and here, I'll show you the actuator's insides.

Check the refrigerant first. I changed my actuator and it did not solve the problem. Had the refrigerant checked and it was low. System was charged and now it blows ice cold on both sides!
