Sounds like the air door actuator is bad. What codes are you getting?

Amazon Amazon

I was going to buy for $55 apiece (one for each side) but wasn't sure I would have by this weekend so I paid $70 apiece for Prime 2-day shipping.

If you get cold air on one side then you only need one of them.

There are threads on the forum that explain how to do the job. They predict a 3 - 4 project. I will try to take photos of mine this weekend.

Ok, once again, as mentioned, check for any codes? Sounds like a bad actuator.
