Default Crazy C5 HVAC issue

I have a 98 Pace car with automatic climate control. I recently had the compressor and condenser replaced. It seems to work OK but only on the drivers side. Driver side cold - passenger hot. I have tried pulling the HVAC fuses about 20 times and have even disconnected the battery for 12 hours. The crazy thing about is when I go to the DIC, I get 2 history codes, BO367H and BO446H. If I have the car running and clear the codes, the air will turn cold on the pass side for about 10 secs and then warms up again. If I go back to the DIC, the codes are back and they always come back as history codes. I am a little perplexed and really don't want to tear the dash apart. I figure if it works correctly when codes are cleared then the blend door at least is moving. Any suggestions? You expertise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Replace the blend door actuators. Do both the driver and passenger ones at the same time. Use the Dorman 604-106 to replace them.

Thanks Gary- I've holding out that last hope I wouldn't have to do it but alas I must. I have already replaced the left side. Now for the real work.
Thanks for the reply.
