I've searched this forum and google and can't quite find what I'm looking for.

Anyway, when I use the blower (heat or AC) sometimes there is a clicking noise and the fan cuts out for a split second. I would imagine that there is a fuse or relay that is failing but I can't find it and I don't know how to replace it.

Any help?

Sure sounds like a relay cycling. Is the fan straining to spin like a bearing is bad or something?

No, when it works, it works perfectly fine. The only issue is when it cuts out and clicks. So is a relay going bad? I know they are behind the glove box but from the diagrams I've seen there are a couple of them and I don't know how to reach them.
