I had the same issue, where the driver side blew hot and passenger side cold. Took it to the dealer and they charge me 6oo dollars to change the air actuator value. This value (next to radiator) is what controls the coolant flow for the dual climate control.

After having this done and looking at the change, I became more than a bit
Agitated.... A thought occurred to me that a radiator flush would have resolved the issue and saved me 600 dollars. What lead me to that conclusion are two things

1) Mechanic said when he clamped of the other side of he value the issue resolved itself meaning the value was not bad.
2) This issue only happen after I turned on the heater for the first time this season...

1995 Lesabre blows hot on drivers side, cold on passenger side

THIS IS A GUESS. Both sides probabley have "mix" dampers that regulate temp by mixing hot and cold air to make you comfortable. Passenger side must not work properly, stepper motor? Dirty actuator? Temp sensor on passenger not working? Don't honestly know but I'm not sure a do it yourselfer could figure it out. Sounds complicated.

Its more then likely the temp door broken or temp door motor broken/stuck. There is 2-3 of these motors under the dash on the side of the evap/heater core box. Some require extensive labor to replace, good luck
