Default climate control issue??

2003 Z06 Vette!
my when the A/C button is pressed the system blows ice cold A/C as it should, maybe I am thinking about this wrong but the pass side HVAC **** should blow warm air when the dial is turned to hotter temps? right? its not in my case it stay's at what ever I set the drivers side **** too? I checked the DIC and zero codes are present I pulled fuse #27 in the pass side foot well waited 5 mins to let the system reset and the issues is still there any ideals?

The right control doesn't do much. It might change the temp 5 degrees, but that's all.

if you have it on max cold the passenger side will not change. If you have it on say 68 or 70 degrees and turn the heat on the passenger side it will work.

its too late now to start her up and try it I will try this in the am..i guess I was thinking there would be a significant change between the two sides, but makes more sense now I suppose!

Let me know if it works. I figured that out when I was at corvetteworld. But as long has you dont have it on max a/c or max heat the passenger side will work.
