Heat is hot on driver side and cold on passenger.

I’m at a loss. When running my heater it is hot as ever on the drivers side vents but on passenger side it is Luke warm at best. It doesn’t happen with the AC. Coolant is full. I’ve checked the actuator and it seems to be fine. It doesn’t have the dual climate control. Any ideas on what to check next? 2013 Fr-s base.
Thanks

Sounds like you do have dual climate control.

Welcome to the forum, Peanrocks -

It's supposed to be the other way around, so as to keep your SO all toasty.

Is the air flow the same on both sides?

Are you talking about the floor vent or the dash vents or both?

Only difference between base model and dual climate controls are the knobs. The base model has a common control but the ducts are still separated. Something slipped or broke on the passenger side.

Thank you, it’s work for me but passengers don’t like it lol. Air flow is the same and it is all vents.

It's going to be deep inside the unit itself. No easy way to get to it.

Bubba says to poke up there with a coat hangar - is that not a good idea?
