Default C5 Air conditioning problem

My 97 C5 dual zone airconditioner blows hot air on the drivers side and cold air on the passenger side. Can't adjust it

I haven't noticed any codes. Everything seems to be working normal. You can adjust the temperature but it still blows hot air on the drivers side. If you select front windshield defrost, the drivers side of the defroster vent blows hot air and the passenger side of the defroster vent blows cold air.
