ac electric compressor changed, ac work cold on 60 or 65 degree, once you changed temp to 67 or above, it start blowing hot air, and also no air coming from defrost, when the mode is there, or the ground when changing mood, air only coming from front vents, the dual climate works fine for right or left side, so when left side(driver side), SET AT 60 0R 65 it blows cold from that side, but when right side at 67 or above it blows hot air from the right side, i know there is 3 actuators driver side under dash, passenger side under dash, and one inside dash, but i have no idea which one controls what, and also I don't know are all three are the same part number, I hear the sound of the actuator from right side but not sure the one inside the dash, or under the dash right side, also hear the sound when put the max ac, please help thank you

verify all components are functioning before assuming it is an actuator. You can look online for a checklist of AC components, and the order in which they should be checked. The failure of one part can cause another to act strangely.
Welcome to the City!! Sorry you are having issues with your Escape.
Buy, find, steal a good scanner, and scan all modules for codes. Then run the KOEO and KOER self-demand test. Your A/C system is kinda smart and should show an if there is a problem.

Examples of some codes.

Check you main car battery - i had a bunch of random gremlin AC issues and spent a few hundred on getting AC recharged and replaced a blend door - none of this solved the problem. Turned out battery was on the way out - changed that and all back to normal
