2000 I30 - Noisy blower motor?

[Kompresshun]

Hey guys, I have been noticing my blower motor being a little noisier than usual lately. It sounds like there's a leaf or some debris in the blower motor, but I'm just wanting to make sure it might not be something else before I tear everything apart. It does it on all speeds and all modes, and is just a light clicking or rubbing noise, than sounds like a fan with something in it. Any opinions are appreciated! Thanks!

Chances are it's just something in the blower cage. Happens all the time. Not really an easy way to find out other than pulling it out and taking a look.

Thanks Kenny, I figured that's the most likely thing. I just wanted to check before I went to the trouble of taking it out.

Car why you make new noises every week? Because race car?

No problem. Just be careful when you pull it out (HA!). If there's something stuck in the cage, the fins could be brittle because of age.
