Default Dual zone ac not working right

My dual zone ac blows only hot air on the passenger side no matter what the settings are. Driver's side blows nice and cold. Any ideas?

This just happened for the second time for me this week. The first time was I believe last summer. The dealer had to pull the dash top I believe, I'll have to look at my records for what was fixed. I'll let you now something if I come across how it was fixed or after I take mine to the dealer.

Same thing happened to my 99. There is a computer that needs to be re-flashed. I sold the 99 so I don't have the service records but (I could be wrong) I believe the BCM had to be reflashed. This is a commom problem.

There is also a DIY fix that requires the removal of two fuses and disconnecting the battery but I can't remember where that post is. Hopefully someone will remember and chime in.

Same exact thing happened to me. The problem is that it was the actuator. They ordered it and now everything is fine
