Why is my AC vent hot?
Most likely, if you’re having issues with your air conditioner blowing hot or warm air, it’s either a problem with the compressor/outside unit or your air conditioner is low on refrigerant. You may also have a return duct that is broken or disconnected and is pulling in unconditioned air from outside or an attic space.
Why does my a / C vents blow cold but warm drivers?
It will not be apparent if just looking at freon gauge pressures- they will be normal. But a system that is 1/2 pound low will cause the passenger side vents to blow cool or cold air, and the drivers side to be less cool or even warm on this car. There is simply not enough freon capacity in the system to cool the air to the drivers 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 are the vents on the passenger side warm?
Repairs for this problem = A/C compressor, orifice tube and drier replaced about 1 year ago. The problem I have is that when you turn the ac on the cool air only comes out the 2 vents on the passenger side. The 2 vents on the drivers side have warm air blowing out. A/C is controls are set to max air and max cold on the temp control.
Where does the cold air come from in a car?

Why does my AC blow cold air on one side and hot air on the other?
Blend door actuators are the most common reason for the car air conditioning to blow cold air on one side and hot air on the other. They can be diagnosed with an advanced scan tool. The scan tool can tell if the blend door actuator should be in a different position than commanded.
Can a car vent blow cold one side and hot the other?
In a vehicle with dual temperature controls you may encounter a situation where the vent blows cold one side, hot on other side or vice versa.
Is there cold air coming out of the passenger side?
WOW! part numbers 80321-shj-a02 and 80341-shj-a01. The “low freon” speculation…needs to be investigated. I suspect the cold air coming out of the passenger side is plenty cold, which would not be possible with a freon leak. Before bringing it into the shop, check out the driver’s side air mix motor.
What’s the difference between hot air and cold air in a car?
’06 = While both driver & passenger side temps & fan speed are set the same, the drivers side blows hot air & the passenger side blows cold.
