I have a 2003 SSEi that just recently started giving me an A/C issue. The passenger side puts out cold air when the driver side puts out cabin temperature air. When I set both sides to 60 degrees, they seem to blow at the same velocity, but the passenger side is cooler, like it is conditioned.

I checked the freon level first, and it is alright. I checked the actuator on the passenger side and the two actuators on the drivers side/middle console area. They seem to function properly and I operated the dampers manually with the expected diversion of air, but the driver side did not get cooler.

Is there another actuator I should be looking for? Any other suggestions?

I searched the forums but what I found hasn't fixed the problem yet. I replaced the blower motor assembly last winter, about seven months ago, because it wouldn't start intermittently, and it has all worked good up until now. Thanks for your help.

I have the same car,,,, add a can of freon.

I know you checked it,,,,, I know it showed ok,,,, trust me,,,, add a can.

Actually, I did just what you suggest last night. I added almost a can of freon and took the pressure to the high side of the safe zone. I initially thought it was helping, but it is still the same.

Thanks for the suggestion.

add one more !!!!!!

I'll check it again to see if it will take another. Thanks again for the advice.

having same problem added more Freon than I wanted to and still only blowing cold on pass. side. My car is a 2000 SSEI

It started woking the day after I added freon. So far it has been working alright. I added only part of a can. The gauge was on the higher side.

I also have a 2000 SSEi and am now having the same problem........passenger side is ice cold but drivers side is like it is on vent....much warmer

I guess i'll have to try adding freon also..................where do you add it ......

when you buy the kit and hose, it will be self explanatory where it clips onto.

look for a large looking valve stem cover on a 1/2 inch line
