There is at least one. If you have the electronic split system there are two temperature actuators.
In the picture is the left hand actuator. In the manual system this is the only actuator. In the automatic system this id the drivers side unit.
If you have the automatic system the second picture is the right hand actuator that services the passenger side.
Both are very easy to change compared to other makes.

For five days the drivers side blew hot air would not cool.
Yesterday passenger side starting doing the same. I have our of habit replaced all fuses related to A/C whether needed or not. It is not the fuses.

You should be able to see those real easy without a lot of work. I would watch them as you switch from hot/cold as there are some plastic linkage parts that break and cause this as well as the actuators themselves.
