Hi folks,
I've had a problem with my 03 Eclipse GT since I got it, but now it seems to be getting worse. When I have the interior fan on "1" it makes a little "woop-woop-woop" sound like it is a bad bearing in the fan or something. Doesn't matter if it is on heat, or AC or which vent is used, it's the same sound all the time. I used to ignore it, because when I put it on the "2" speed setting, it goes away. Well, now the sound is there in the "2" setting, and I can't use the next setting all the time, it's way too loud. So I need to find a fix here.
I've been reluctant to bring it to the dealer, I can imagine them having to rip apart the dash and charge me a load of cash to fix a little sound.... but it is annoying to the point of actually paying for it.
Any ideas about if the fan itself is accessable? I mean, I'd like to give it a crack at fixing it myself, before I bring it in. Any help or advice would be appreciated,
thanks,
john
