Default AC Hot on the drivers, cold on the passanger

I've been having a problem with my 04 1500 series. It has dual Climate control and sometimes it will just start blowing hot air out the drivers side, but stays cold on the passengers side. If I turn the truck off and turn it back on it fixes the problem, which isn't so bad but it will sometimes just randomly do it while I'm out driving.

Anyone else had this problem.

Blend door/mixer is bad. Easy fix if you have the time.

There's a temp sensor in the tubes on both sides (one per tube). Sounds like it went bad, or the blending door is not working.

The blend door actuators are a very common failure
