Default A/C Temps

I get nice COLD air out of the passanger vents, but not very cool air at all from the drivers. If I turn the heat on, the temps are the same from both sets of vents. I have replaced the climate control unit with a rebuilt unit (display issues)last summer, but it worked fine after I did that last summer. Any advice???

Thx

I think this is the setup that has the plastic gear on the electric motor that people are upgrading to brass because the gear brakes. This is from my poor memory.

Check the DIC for HVAC codes.
Sounds like the left actuator door is not working,or needs reindexing.

There are a couple of things that would cause the problem.
1) It has been addressed that low R134 will cause the problem.
2) The actuator is the dash is bad. (This was my cause) Check the codes!
Thanks,
