Hello and thank you for using JustAnswer. My name is XXXXX XXXXX X will do my best to help you with your Chevy problem.

Is the mode actuator that you need to replace (vent, floor, and defrost modes)?

Customer replied 684 days and 6 hours ago.

Yes. Intermittently, the drivers side only, will start blowing hot air. We have dual climate contols for the front. The passenger side will still be blowing cold.

The drivers side temperature actuator is the one that needs to be replaced. It is located under the bottom of the a/c case. Remove the plastic covers from under the dash, then the actuator can be removed. It is held in place with two screws and is just to the right of center over the transmission hump.

Is this the same as the blend door actuator?

Customer replied 684 days and 6 hours ago.

sorry, I meant the same as the temp control actuator. Would you agree with this replacement part being the solution to this problem?

The temperature actuator is also called a blend door actuator. Replacing this actuator will fix your problem.
