Air conditioning system, when you turn on the air conditioner the drivers side blows cold air and the passengers side blows hot air? What causes this problem?

The most common cause of this is that you have a stuck air temperature control blend door, this can be a motor actuator issue or a jammed door or both (common). To replace both parts you will need to completely remove the dash from the car to access the blend door.

Replace blend door in 07 Chrysler sebring

The most likely problem is either the blend door actuator or a broken blend door itself.
Both are only accessible by complete removal of the instrument panel(dash).
The blend door actuator can be tested with a Chrysler factory scan tool hooked up to the DLC(data link connector). If blend door actuator is working when tested with the factory scan tool, then blend door itself is at fault.
The only other way to test the blend door actuator is to test for 12v at connector, but you would have to remove the instrument panel in order to gain access to the actuator

My 2005 2500 HD Duramax is not getting any heat inside cab. Engine is not running hot and coolant level is fine. Turned the heater controls up and down fast today and ot some heat for a while.

The temperature of the air coming out of the ducts is controlled by a door that moves between the heater core and the AC core, it is called the "blend" door for obvious reasons as it blends the hot and cold air streams to give the desired air temperature at the dash vents. The door is controlled by a small gear drive DC motor called the blend door actuator, what happens in most case is the actuator is damaged by a blend door that is warped from heat being hard to move or not moving at all which is the case with your truck. The blend door and its actuator should be replaced as one repair, the dash must be removed from the truck to access the air ducting that contains the blend door, you absolutely need a service manual to complete this job, it takes about 10 hours.

2003 mercury grand marquis LS heater does notr blow hot air, blower blows but cold air comes what is the problem

The blend door is stuck in cold position. That usually happens because the blend door actuator has failed.

You will need to test and replace the blend door actuator.

To replace the actuator you will need to take apart the dash and remove completely the instrument panel,d isconnect the connector, remove the four screws, remove the temperature blend door actuator and replace it.

The replacement is not a job for beginners, since you have to take apart the dash to access the actuator.

Regards.
