Drivers side blows hot air but passenger side blows only warm air. I have already changed the blend door actuator and the the center stack heating controls. Now I am stuck and cannot figure out how to fix it. I would like hot air on both sides before winter.

Hello,

It sounds like the blend door has broken loose from the pivot. But to be sure can you remove the blend door actuator and turn the system on to see if the actuator has full range also move the blend door pivot by hand to see if the door will swing and close in both directions?

Here is a guide that can help:

Check out the diagrams (below). Please run down this guide and report back.
