The left hand heater vents blow hot air, the right hand blow cold air. What's up?

The blend door determines if you get heat or AC. Your vehicle has a seperate one for each side. One must be stuck or not working.

Jacobandnickolas - how about my 2005 Toyota Sienna van - blows hot air to driver, but not to passenger or rear. If your answer is the same, the blend door, where is it, and how do you get at it?

Yes, the blend door is what determines if you get heat or AC into the vehicle. THe blend doors are located near the heater core.
