A/C blows warm air on left vent and cold air on right vent.

My 2003 E500 blows warm air on left vent and cold air on right vent even when set to low temperature setting. I checked the left and right blend air actuators and they're working fine. What could be the problem?

    Open the hood, turn on the A/C and feel the suction line (compressor to expansion valve). It it's cold, that means that the problem is inside (actuator). If not cold, it means the system is low in charge.

Driver side blowing warm air with ac on , passenger side cold...2007 Impala

The 2 vents on the drivers side have warm air blowing out. ... 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.

Left Vents blow warm/hot air when calling for cold air

Usually a sign of a faulty blend door under the dash.
The blend doors direct air thru the ac and heater core along with the upper and lower vents.

2003 Ford Explorer XLT Air Conditioning vents blow hot and cold

It sounds like the control motor switching from hot to cold is stuck halfway in between the two temp settings. You will have to take it down and replace it, it is mounted under dash passenger side near the blower motor.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER IF THE 2 RIGHT VENTS BLOW COLD AIR BUT THE LEFT VENTS BLOW THE CIRCULATED VENT AIR (WARM)

By my experience you have a low charge, it sounds nuts, but for some reason it will blow warm on pass side and cool on driver side with low charge.
If the charge is correct, than you have a actuator issue.
It will have to be looked at for proper diagnosis.
I would start with a a/c performance test.

A/c cold on onside not the other.

sounds like a cracked vacuum line... or a bad vacuum control box getting the settings confused check there first.. (hot air from outside is being forced in on the one side because one vent is open, cold on other then when on normal when both outside vents should be open 2 arent and one is)

Not getting cold air out of A/C

Freon is low, go to walmart and buy a R134 kit with guage attached (not very expensive. Connect it to the low pressure side of the A/c system (don't worry the connection won't fit on the high pressure side) Read the guage on the kit and add as neccessary. It truly is that simple.

Rear air conditioning setting

It sounds like your rear temp. blend door is malfunctioning. You might could get a known good controller from (ebay,junkyard,craigslist) then plug it in. If this does not fix, it is probably a blend door actuator issue.
