Default Help AC Problem

I am getting hot air out of the drivers side vents and cold air on the passenger side vents. I remember a post on this a while back, but I can't find it.

Any ideas what to look for?

I had the same issue once. All it needed was a re-charge. System was a little low.

+1 on Corvettes as well as many European cars; low Freon levels will cause imbalance with nothing to do with water valves. Before you worry about coolant stuff, I'd go buy a can of whatever your local parts shop has, and make sure it is the kind that comes with a gauge. Plus it up, and try the air.

Mine did that and it was low on freon. I know it doesn't sound right but it will do that.
