I have a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500. Warm air blows on the passenger side, but cold air blows on the driver side. Also, the check guage light is on. Any thoughts?

You have actuators that are run by vacuum. they may not be getting vacuum to operate properly. I can send a generic picture of actuators under the dash. I'll also send a vacuum diagram as to which is supposed to do what.

You may have a vacuum line off or leaking it gets vacuum from a tank then the intake manifold. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.

Step 1 - A heater cannot operate unless the engine is full of coolant/antifreeze. If coolant level is low check the system for leaks.
