Any auto A/C guys in the house?

'06 Silverado with the old style dual climate control. Yesterday while heading to work, the driver side vents started blowing hot air and the passenger side vents were still blowing cold. When I cranked it back up this morning, i had no issues on the way home. The driver side just flipped to hot air again a while ago. Any idea what's going on? Maybe a simple fix I can do myself?

It's the little motor that controls where the air goes, you have a couple of them under the dash. The part is cheap and you can do it yourself in an hour or so. If you do it be sure and do what the instructions say about not Appling any power to the motor until it's in place and tightened down.

Actuator harness or the actuator itself, common problem with the dual zone system in those trucks.

I had an 05 Sierra and my wife had an 04 Yukon, and both did the same thing periodically. Most of the time if I just turn the engine off and back on it would go back to normal.

Blend door actuator.
When I had a 2005 Silverado and the blend door actuator went out, I was only getting cold air out of the defrost vents near windshield.
It was about $300 P&L at the stealership.

I used to just shift to neutral, and restart the engine. Drove my wife nuts when I did that on the highway.
Then I bought a ford *ducks*

I guess I'm just an ole grumpy SOB, but why are there threads on this board about a/c's, hot water heaters, etc?
I seriously ask because if it's a truck, that slides it into an outdoors type vehicle used for hunting?

Blend door actuator. Have changed out a few, and the passenger side sucks big time
Eta: Basically look at the spot on the dash between the radio and the airbag. From there, go almost all of the way in the dash to the window. It's in there

Hammer time is right Blend door actuator. You tube it take it out and take it apart. Clean out all that grease in there and put it back together. Did that to mine been cooling for couple years since.
