Default 96 rivi a/c prob

my '96 riv has a problem where the a/c blows hot on drivers side, but cold on passenger side. its like a vent is closed off or something... anyone out there have an idea as to what may be wrong??

It is the electric solenoid behind the dash that diverts the air from A/C to Heater. Easy fix once you locate the solenoid.

Not positive if solenoid is used here, if so , good. If you can't find any solenoid or wiring , you might look for a vacuum controlled chamber and link.
