Are there vents on the passenger side that blow cold air?

However, if I fiddle around with the temperature control I can get the vents on the passenger’s side to blow warm air. Turn dial all the way to cold, passenger and driver vents blow cold air (expected) – turn dial all the way to hot, passenger side blowing out the same cold air but driver’s side blowing extremely hot air.

Why does hot air blow from the driver’s side?

Sometimes it will get warm (but not as warm as the driver’s side) and sometimes it will simply stay cold while the driver’s side is hot. It seems like I must turn the dial back and forth a couple of times in order to the passenger’s side to blow hot air (but not get as hot as driver’s side).

What does it mean when AC blows hot air on one side?

AC Blows Hot or Cold Air on One Side with Clicking Sound. If you experience the symptom of the AC blowing hot or cold air on one side but not the other and it’s accompanied by a clicking or ticking sound, it probably means a gear in the temperature blend door actuator is faulty and the actuator needs to be replaced.

Why does the passenger side of my car get hot and cold at the same time?

However, when turning the dial to hot/warm the driver’s side responds correctly while the passenger vent is intermittent. Sometimes it will get warm (but not as warm as the driver’s side) and sometimes it will simply stay cold while the driver’s side is hot.
