Hello my name is Miguel I have the car listed above lt coupe. When I put the AC to the hot setting the drivers side is the only one that kind off comes out warm and when I put cold air the passengers side is when it kind of comes out cold. Any suggestions? I was told it could be the blend door actuator but I am not sure and don't want to buy something I might not need and I want to make sure.

Good afternoon.

When you command heat and cold, can you hear the mode door move back and forth in the dash?

The mode door is under the left side of the dash and could be the issue if it is not moving. it is a very common failure.

Also, make sure your coolant level is correct in case there is not enough coolant in the system to produce heat.

Then chances are the mode door is not working. It is under the dash on the left side as in the picture. Put your hand on it and check again by changing heat to cold and see if it is working.

If it is not, then replace it.

My 2015 Camaro is doing the same thing. Is the mode door in the same place?
