2001Pathy Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Hi all, My 2001 Finder has developed a super annoying heater/airconditioner fan squeek. Anyone know of a related thread in here or a do it yourself fix. Sounds like the squeek is coming from around the glove box area? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamzan Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Mine was doing that and then it stopped working all together but after removing and cleaning up the brushes it works fine and is silent again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Have you tried kicking the underside of your dash? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUDGE Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Have you tried kicking the underside of your dash? LOL!!! I've given my dash a good wack when I've heard a sqweek or rattle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverPath Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Amazing how a good wack helps things, I had a tickin noise under my dash when I accelerated, a good wack and it was good Speaking of which, I haven't had to wack my dash in awhile.....ohwell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Lol, the only real reason why I posted that is because in both of my Pathfinders the fan sometimes started buzzing and rattling and a good kick under the glove box shut it up. No, I didn't kick it while driving...well besides that one time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2001Pathy Posted April 15, 2010 Author Share Posted April 15, 2010 Finally got around to trying to diagnose this issue.... Took the fan apart. Weirdest thing, once I had the fan shroud off and the fan was exposed it wouldn't make the noise. I ran it at all speeds and it was virtually silent. Leads me to beleive the squeak/rattle is somewhere else. Anyhow, cleaned it up, gave it a good dose of WD and put it back together. Any other tips would be most appreciated.
