Looks like L-N:
L-An open in the passenger's air mix control motor circuit
N-A problem in the passenger's air mox control linkage, door, or motor

thanks for the input guys.

does anyone happen to know how to fix these issues? i have no idea what to do when it comes to troubleshooting an A/C so im not sure what the mix control motor circuits etc. are.

do i need to take it to a shop or is this a simple fix to DIY? is it expensive, etc.
