Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Troubleshooting Weird sound when blower is on...

Hey all. I know this has probably been talked about over and over, but I can't find a clear answer for what the problem is, but I have a few ideas.

For one, this is my girls car. Her heater switch already broke, and we got that recall fixed. *thanks to this site*

Anyways, there is still a problem of when you turn the blower on in any position, you hear a "wrapping" sound under the hood.

I popped the hood, and to me it sounds like a "switch". Turning on, and bogging down the motor a tad. Then turning off, and the motor pics up.

It does this the whole time the blower is on.

Here is the list of recalls as most of you know I'm sure.

Perhaps I'm wrong, but please tell me, would it fall under this recall??

01S22 SEP 01 Recall - Blower Resistor Inspection/Replacement

Thanks alot, and I must say. This site is more then imformative. A lot of great information on here.

Thanks,

sounds like the compressor cycling on and off, must have the heater control in Def/Def-floor. This would be normal to help de-fog the interior.

Bump?

maybe there's a problem and it's cycling the a/c compressor when it's not supposed to (i.e. not in a defrost setting)... try unplugging the connector to the compressor and see if it still does it. (but remember to plug it back in afterword)

Not sure exactly the sound of the noise, but do you get airflow from the vents, and does it appear okay, i.e. hot/cold and fast/slow when set as such.
Check the pollen filter too, should be a simple and cheap one to check first.

Anyone??
