Question Warm CC air only when car is moving, when standstill - COLD air out of CC

Dear fellow forum members,

This one comes just in time when the cold and bad weather has started!
My car is exhibiting certain symptoms and I am trying to figure out whether this is an issue with physical duct and air passageway components, the computer or something else....

When I turn on climate control, the car will blow air temp according to the one inputted only when I am driving, as soon as I come to a standstill, no matter what temp i input in the CC on the center console, the air will be freezing cold.

Now I dont know if its the computer sending improper signals to the duct system, a bad sensor or some problem with the duct passageway system.

Please help, any input would be much appreciated

Kind Regards,
Aleksey

HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
