Default A/C Issues

I've searched and couldn't find anything that helps. Basically, my AC just has a mind of its own and works when it wants. The driver side vents pretty much work as they should. The passenger side vents seem like they are being restricted. When I set the blower speed to the highest setting, it stays stuck on high, even if I change it back down to low. Should I replace the actual control unit or maybe is it the compressor? Im just not sure why 2 vents flow free and 2 seem blocked.

Could be an actuator getting stuck. Try resetting your system by disconnecting both battery terminals, then grounding them against each other to discharge the residual charge left in the systems, then reconnecting after 10 minutes (I think?). See if this resolves the issue.

Okay thanks for the suggestion. I’ll try that when I get home. It seems like the passenger side is not working at all. I had both sides set to 60 and the driver side was working but the passenger was slowly blowing warm air

It's a common problem, and usually has to do with the door blend actuator. Hopefully the reset will resolve it, otherwise you'll be replacing parts.
