Damn buzz!

[DevilDamo]

I have an annoying buzz in my car. When I went to see Mike and co. down at Rentech, they said it could be the interior climate sensor thing.

This morning, I found out what it was.

Where the interior light and switches are, there are two sets of small holes. The buzz is coming from the ones nearest to the windscreen. When I put my hand over the holes, the buzzing stops... or at least quietens right down.

How do I stop this from happening permanently? I was thinking about putting some tape over it but I don't want to mess around with the climate sensors.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks,

Damo

turn up the toones!

or take it apart and see what is actually buzzing then you can either fix it or find a replacement part.

It'll be the little fan inside the cover.

Replace or lubricate it seems to be the preferred option.

Word of advice if it is the climate control sensor fan, dont bother replacing it. I did only 30 quid from Renault but 4 months down the line, the same noise, AGAIN!!! As above just turn up the tunes!!!

Is there a fuse controlling this fan that I can remove? Or is that going to cause problems for the climate control itself?

when i took mine out...it was clogged up with dust and pish...

probably just need to clean the wee fan...mayby lube it up..

How do I go about removing the centre panel so I can get to the fan?
