Rear A/C sending warm air while front A/C works

Good morning,

The rear A/C is in the left rear inside the van behind the panels. The air door is there as well as the expansion valve.

Move the heat and cold back and forth and make sure the mode door is moving. If it is not, then it is the expansion valve.
