Sometimes only blows cold air on drivers side but passenger side is hot. I can’t see to find the blend door actuator for that.

Hello,

So the driver side blend door actuator is on the left side of the HVAC plenum above the accelerator pedal. Make sure to reset the system once the part is replaced, here is a guide to help.
