If you are getting heat only on the pass. side then I believe the blend door has failed. Dodge has a fix and the job is not easy as almost the whole dash needs to come out in order to get to the heater box and the door. I have read that a simple flush of the heater core will cure it, But that diidn't work for me. I think because dual climate control was an option the door is set up to control the two sides of the cab. When it fails only the pass. side gets heat.

Unfortunatly you do have to remove the dash to access any of the blend door or fresh air door actuators
here is a step by step proceedure this takes aprox 5 hrs in a shop so plan on a weekend at home good luck

FLOOR - DEFROST DOOR ACTUATOR

REMOVAL

WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIRBAGS, DISABLE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY STEERING WHEEL, STEERING COLUMN, OR INSTRUMENT PANEL COMPONENT DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. DISCONNECT AND ISOLATE THE BATTERY NEGATIVE (GROUND) CABLE, THEN WAIT TWO MINUTES FOR THE AIRBAG SYSTEM CAPACITOR TO DISCHARGE BEFORE PERFORMING FURTHER DIAGNOSIS OR SERVICE. THIS IS THE ONLY SURE WAY TO DISABLE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. FAILURE TO TAKE THE PROPER PRECAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY.

Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
Remove the instrument panel assembly from the vehicle.

02 dodge ram 1500 heat on passenger side of - zjlimited_318.jpg

Fig. HVAC housing, dual zone shown (single zone similar)-nut (1), passenger blend door actuator (2), nut (3), inlet baffle (4), recirc door actuator (5), recirc air door (6), driver side blend door actuator (7), HVAC housing (8), bolt (9), defroster door actuator (10), mode door actuator (11)

Remove the electrical connector from the actuator.
Remove the mounting screws from the actuator.
Remove the actuator from the HVAC housing.

INSTALLATION
Install the floor-defrost door actuator to the HVAC assembly.
Install the mounting screws and tighten to 2.2 Nm (20 in. lbs.) .
Install the actuator electrical connector.
Install the instrument panel assembly into the vehicle.
Connect the battery negative cable.

I suggest check (or replace if is necessary), the blend door it is a huge project you have to remove the dash board. There is a repair kit available either way it is a 8 hr shop time project.

Hope helps.

2002 DODGE RAM 1500 P/UP , AC TEMP PROBLEM

Have you checked the cowl to see that it is free and clear of leaves and dirt? You may have to take the plastic off to get down into it and sweep it out with a vac. Usually it is right under your wipers.
