Problem overview

Some Honda Odyssey owners report experiencing air conditioning issues where the driver side blows warm air while the passenger side remains cold. These problems may be attributed to factors such as a faulty HVAC door actuator on the driver's side, a low refrigerant charge, or a malfunctioning blend door actuator in dual-zone climate control systems. To address these issues, some owners find that replacing the HVAC door actuator or blend door actuator can resolve the problem, while others may need to recharge the refrigerant to restore proper cooling functionality. Additionally, some drivers have successfully implemented DIY fixes, such as adjusting temperature settings to check actuator movement and achieve a more balanced temperature distribution. It is advisable for owners facing these issues to consider these potential causes and take the necessary steps to rectify them.
