Mechanic was going to charge me 300 in labor just diagnos exactly what you explained in 5 minutes..I really appreciate you taking the time to post this

Very nice video brother..... it’s obvious that English isn’t ur first language, however u done an excellent job explaining it to us and u were very easy to understand. Thank u sir for taking time to make this!

Great job explaining everything in layman's terms because I'm not a mechanic and you explained everything very simply. thank you

Thank you sir! I am going to check it out. You are the MAN!!!

Thank you for your guidance. Finally some cold air blowing out from driver side! Saved $$$

Thank you for the video saved me $$$!!! You nailed it! 2013 Acura RDX base

I've been working on my own vehicles for a while now and I have admit I learned alot more than I know about charging my ac and know if it's a actuator or the blendoor. Thanks alot brotha love to learn more

Great explanation and video! Thank you Sir! I'm going to check the actuator and freon level now on my 2002 Lexus ES.

You know what? That was just a great and helpful video. No nonsese just straight to the poing. Thanks for the video.

The other video I saw told me just to pull and replace the actuator. Glad I saw how to test the actuator and thank you for showing clearly the location of the actuator. Recharged A/C today, works great! Thank you

Thank you so much! This is exactly what I needed to know! 2011 Camry passenger side blowing good cold AC and driver's side blowing hot air! Going to check blend door first...

You are a life saver sir! My mechanic wanted to take the car apart to looks for all kinds of problems. Said it would be a 2 and a half hour job!!! Ripoff!

God Bless you.. great video. Found this video after already checking that my actuator was good.. hence low freon. Thank you!

Great Post, ThankYou. You saved me a whole lot of money and I charged the AC myself and it works perfectly!

Thank you. Good video. Not a lot of filler words or distractions so, can follow and understand your point.

I like this guy he is honest,I work in a shop and I like to be honest with my customers too

Thankyou so much for making such a straightforward easy to understand video. My car was low on freon, has been topped up, now much better, but still not as cool on one side, but not warm anymore, so maybe too much freon. Your video indicates most likely not the blend door.

Thanks for the info, now I can get my AC working on my 2008 Avalon.....Great video!

Before you go taking your dashboard apart. Do this. If you car had separate climate control. The side blowing warm to hot air. Stroke or run up the temperatures settings hot to Col hot to cold. I’f it changes your blend door actuator is not bad. Check your climate control set point relay. If the blend door temp changes it’s not bad set point is relay is also it’s not as difficult to check out or change. If the blend door actuator is bad. You would not be able to swing the range of temperature. Also it would be making a ticking noise or a thump. If neither of those are happening or yoUr temperature doesn’t change as you run the thermostat through different ranges.. then absolutely your actuator is bad . Or if it’s just allowed hot air

Thank you so much for the straightforward and simple explanation.

I watch your video all night and day I had a ghibli 2014 had cold on the left Hot on the left I pressed the high and low then I ran the car turn the ac on and the blend door open and close now so happy

Great help I need to have my Freon checked out before anything else, thanks!

If its not actuator fault then definitely its due to less freon gas. Secret tip to check if gas is low; when u start the AC if both side vent gives chilling air for atleast 4-5 sec then cooling decreases at affected side. This is also applicable on split ACs inside houses

Actuator or Blender door. Its the same on all vehicles pretty much. Some guys swear is the heater core but 99.9 percent of the time the heater core or ac charge is not the cause of drivers side and pass side significant temp difference. If one side is holding suitable temp parameter on low fan and doesnt drop significantly when on high fan your coolant charge or heater core flow is not issue. And just because actuator moves does not mean it is in correct position or sealing when closed. I some cases the actuator moves but the little shaft inside your box is broken. It is very common on late model vehicles and It sucks. If you dont have atleast a weekend or potentionally more to spare depending on parts availability or $500 to $1800 to take that bad boy and trade it in!! Sometimes you can get lucky and find a local vocational or technical that will do it for cost of parts and minimal labor charge or donation. I grew up working weekends in my grandfathers shop untill he passed away a few years ago. I do underground pipe so if biz is super busy and I cant find the time to work on my own vehicle I show up with a few pizzas from a really good place and sodas for the class and voila an availability opens for later that week. 😆

Liked your video and the comments thanks, saved me the inconvenience and cost of taking my car to a garage.

Thanks for the video! My 2012 rx350 is doing this so I will investigate the actuator

Oh my god. Thank you. I took my altima to the mechanic and they said "its cold" in which i replied "yes its cold outside.... its the summer im concerned about"

Thank you so much your teaching is so simple and educative!

I needed the truth you told when you said "id you have a old car its just not gonna get cold"

I figured that would be the case. My AC is blowing hot drivers side cold passengers side on my 2006 Avalon Limited. I need it fixed as my mom refuses to drive the car until it’s fixed and it’s 95 here in North Carolina!

I took my venza for the same problem, I service the AC, still have the problem, and I did replace the actuator and it is perfect now, THANK YOU! TO THIS VIDEO, BY THE WAY, THE MECANIC TOLD ME IT WILL BE AROUND 1300.00 TO FIX IT

Thank u for the information- am suffering this issue since 6 months ....I afraid to go any shop they will say change compressor 😀

Thank you so much for going straight to the point

Amazing content! Thank you!

I have the same problem, I’m so glad you made this video thank you sir and bless you 👍 And yes happy to subscribe

Thank you so much I’m for sure subscribing thank you for your knowledge

This started yesterday on my 04 suburban and driver side blows ice cold and passanger side blows Extremely Hot I was told thermostat but this makes more sense

Thank you very much, that is priceless information.

Your amazing sir..thank you

Thank You for this video!!!!

thanks for posting it, very helpful

Would there 2 air climate control modules that control the passenger side and one for the driver side. I have a 2018 lexus IS and only found one module down by the gas pedal?

Thank you, that was very helpful. Best wishes

Thank you so much my moms car has been doing this and man this helps a lot

Thanks for info you are the best

Nice video brotha!!!

Amazing video man keep up the good work !

You are wonderful!!!

Very helpful info, thanks!

Had this same problem so I took it to a repair shop and my 07 Camry only had a half ounce of coolant. It's actually blowing colder than I first got the car. 😀

That’s great , good video

Thanks, I am subscribing!

Thank god this is my exact same car and the exact same problem

I haven’t checked thoses two out but I have been recharging my Tacoma ‘14 and the passenger side does not blow as cold as my driver… I was thinking I have leak so it’s good to know gottah check other things

I have a 2011 Toyota Avalon limited and it has same problem my driver side was not cold and passenger side was cold check driver side blend door actuator and it was working one mechanic told me that I might just be low on Freon and just need be recharged because the actuator is working plus my car few months ago took awhile to cool the vents down hopefully it just simple that I just need ac recharged and thank you

Thanks. Lovely video

Thank you. very educative. regards

Thank you! Now I can discuss issue with mechanic and possibly they won't take advantage of me.

Hey man I have a question my ac in my 2011 scion xb only blows a little cool on the passenger side and warm on driver however my blend door doesn't work like it should when I have it on defrost I still get air blowing out the front vents no matter what setting I put in on even feet setting I get out the front vents when I put it on the window vents barely anything comes out its like all the settings only want to blow out the front vents? Could this make the ac not blow cold? Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏼 just to clarify my hot and cold works it's the setting knobs that aren't working sorry for calling them blend

I don't understand how the passenger side is colder than driver's side is warm just because freon is low. I would have thought both sides would be warm. Thanks for this video!

Very well explained. Thanks 🙂

same issue with 2016 camry. Also, in my case, loud, rapid klicking sound is coming from passenger side. I have removed glovebox, there are 3 actuators and I think clicking is coming from recirculation door actuator, but can't access it good enough. Also, it blows only cold/warm air, no heat.

Great video my friend! Was hoping it wasn't my actuator

currently i am have the same issue in my 2012 mazda3. driver side is warm cool air and cold on passengers side. then again it's ac unit have not been maintained for 10 years. lost of freon over time. guess a can of dye and stop leak?

Thank u, Sir!!

Thanks for the great video

I have this exact problem on a 2008 Lexus RX 350 but I can see the actuator moving and changing position

What do you do if it says you’re over ( ac recharge) what you need but you haven’t charged it??

Thanks for the info,I was just trying to figure out the same problem with my dad 09 Deville.

That's interesting that low refrigerant causes only one side to run hotter. It would be interesting to see the arrangement of evaporator coils inside the dashboard. Perhaps they have two coils and the driver side is downstream of the passenger side?

My car is currently in this condition. Warm driver side and cold passenger side. I hope it’s just lack of freon as the car is around 15yrs old already and not the actuator. Thank u for this vid!

i would have said there is a problem with the actuator not connected to the door?

And if you decide to do it yourself make sure that refrigerant has oil or lubricant in it, correct?

Good video sir Thanks

I have a 2012 Toyota Camry 30,000 miles on it and I barely use the AC and just found out I have the same problem I checked the blendoor and is working do you still think I need to put freon on it? Thanks

I have a 2007 denali I have a problem my passenger side ac blows hot air and driver side is super cold. Idk what else to do.

Thank you

Hy thanks for your time. How about if a car AC toyota avalon only work on P AC die as soon as u shift to other gear I'll be appreciated if someone can help me.

My highlander ac blows cold on the pasaenger side, but not on the driver side. After about 7 minutes the driver side caches up until both sides work.🤷‍♂️

Mine is doing the same thing. I have 05 Avalon. Changed my actuator. Still doing the same thing. Blows cold while driving. Get hot when I park on drivers side. Passenger stays cold.

Excellent

Hey, kindly explain hot to regulate Toyota Sai air conditioning. Thank u

well done, outstanding video. Thanks for sharing your precious time. Regards

I have a 2010 Toyota Camry without dual climate control. Hot air on driver side, cold air on passenger side. actuators appear to be turning and working as they should. Add Freon?

I have a toyota avalon 2007 limited with an issue where I put on the heat and only driver side gets warm. The passenger side stays freezing cold.

Wait but what do I do if the blender isn’t working? I had a bad battery and my car did some weird stuff on the dash and then it starting blowing the hot air on my side. I’ve got a new battery since then and it’s still doing it :(

Thank You very much

I'm having this problem with my 2022 new outlander and the dealer can't solve this problem.

Added Freon to it and all my ac is cold now but drivers side is not “as” cold but a bit colder. It’s getting a little more colder the longer I leave it on. Should I let it run a little longer to give it time to get colder??

Can you help me with this?? My mechanic tried to get my ac going. We replaced door actuators and the condenser. That didn't work. Would this impact the heat?? It's not as strong on the driver's side as before.

My blend door is all the way cold on both sides but still getting a little warm through driver side ?

This worked for me 15 4runner

Thanks brother

Thanks Bud

Great video.. was your ac turned on while u were refilling it or off?

I have a similar problem with my car, I also observed that my ac compressor doesn't tunr off. It's always running unlike before wherein i can here it clicking automatically. Is it also because im low on freon?

I have a 2008 avalon like the one in your video. I've replaced the schrader valves, compressor, condenser and fill it up with Freon, air will be cold for a while and then will start to blow hot air on driver side every time after a month or so. Every time they have done these repairs they have ran a leak test with no leak found. Do you know if it might be the evaporator since its the only major part that hasn't been replaced. I saw a couple of Videos on KZfaq that show this is common in these Avalons. Appreciate your feedback thanks!

Freon. God bless

Sir I have a Toyota Camry 2009 and its the same problem but like it doesn't have two cooling regulators like passenger is different and driver is different. But the problem is exact same I have hot on driver side and cold on passenger side So I just need to put artic freeze in the low one right ?

what can cause the low freon? good video thanks
