Drivers Side A/C Actuator? Driver's Side A/C blowing Warm!

[LeilaniRL]

Hey guys! I'm a newbie and original owner of my Brutus, a 2007 CX-9 Grand Touring.
My Driver's side a/c is significantly warmer than my passenger side and rear. It gets a little cooler after driving on a highway, but still it's warm. I've looked through some posts and some say to check the blend doors. Where can I find this and how can I check it?

Thanks!

You have to get on the floorboards and look up near the center console. There is a black actuator motor (disk-like) on each side that operates the blender door. Have someone operate the hot/cold knob. Try the working side first that way you get the hang of what a working motor does. Then try the other side. If you see no movement when operating the knob, its broke. I had the same issue on my 07' on the passenger side.

I've got a similar issue with the AC system only blowing cold air at the rear of the center console. Has anyone been able to troubleshoot or repair this themselves? Which parts are necessary and how much time is involved? Thanks.
