Ford Excursion :: 2004 - AC To Heater - Clicking Noise Behind Glovebox

We have a 2004 Excursion limited edition with 6.0 diesel. This is a recent purchase for our family. This is our first ever Ford and our first ever Diesel.

Now that we are transitioning into colder weather, we recently tried to place the air from AC to Heater. When we tried, we noticed a clicking or hitting noise from the passenger side behind the glove box. When we stopped the air, the noise stopped. When we kept it on the AC, it stopped. Last night we tried to replicate the issue to get more info and we saw that now its stuck on heater and we lost the AC cold air. The module that is making noise is behind the glove box. It is not coming from the actuator that moves air from the feet to the vents, but it is to the right of the actuator and has a plug with about 4 cables plugged into it.

Questions:

What is this module so that I can order a new one?

Does this sound like a bad HVAC blend door actuator? (not trying to steer it that way if its not.)

Any videos on how to replace it? I only see one bolt that mounts it and it appears to be about 8 mm. Is that the only thing holding it?

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Buzzing Noise Behind Glovebox At Start Up

Just lately, I noticed a buzzing noise emanating from the glovebox when my car starts up. It goes away probably in 20 secs or so, and it's very pronounced when the outside temp is hot. When I was replacing my cabin filter, I found the source of the buzz. It's black box below the cabin air filter, to the right, with a 6-pin (?) molex. What this part is? See attached pic for identification.

Passat (B5) :: Clicking Noise Coming From Passenger Side Behind Glovebox

I have a 99 B5 which my wife drives most of the time - it has just passed the 150k miles and owes me nothing. But it has recently developed an annoying clicking noise coming from the passenger's side somewhere around or behind the glovebox. I have emptied out the glovebox and tried turning off the climatronic and the stereo but cannot locate it.

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: 2005 - Ticking Noise / Blue Spark Occurring At Random Intervals On The Balancer

2005, 2.7l. FWD automatic, with 180,000+ miles.

A week ago it started making a random ticking noise I've never heard before. Today was the first chance I got to try and find it and I'm stumped on what could cause this.

The sound is a static or low voltage electrical discharge coming off the harmonic balancer. I can actually see the blue spark occurring at random intervals and locations on the balancer as the car is running.

Do i need to be looking for a bad engine ground? I'm having no other electrical problems. The car runs like a champ other than a minor oil and power steering fluid leak.

Lexus LS 2007+ :: Squawking Noise From Behind Glovebox Area

I have a squawking sort of noise from behind the glovebox area that seems to happen when I'm driving on a freeway at speed. It sounds like a little electric motor maybe trying to adjust an AC flap perhaps ?

Santa FE SM (2001-06) :: Speedo Dropping At Random Intervals?

So I just bought this 03 Santa FE a week or so ago and the Speedo like to drop at random intervals. I'll be cruising along at 60 down the highway and then BAM! nothing happens to the car as long as I don't have the cruise control on...if I do then it sputters and I just take over. Is this more than just a Speed sensor issue?

Passat (B6) :: Chime Goes Off Three Times At Seemingly Random Intervals Between 65 - 80 Mph

Bought a Passat 2.0 Komfort and we're on its' first road trip. Between 65 - 80 mph a chime goes off three times at seemingly random intervals whether I'm accelerating or decelerating in that zone. The speed warning is turned off and the winter tire function is off. There are no warning lights or messages. It's got my salesperson and a VW service dept baffled.

Cherokee :: Airbag Light And Chime At Random Intervals

At random intervals the Air Bag light on the dash is coming on and the more annoying chime sounds.

When I removed the center console to clean it up I noted there is an airbag module in there, and at one point in time there appears to have been a liquid spill nearby.

I saw a couple threads that were pretty old on this note, but was hoping for some fresh input on the possible problem and resolution to this.

2000 JGC Laredo.

Sebring - Chrysler :: Headlights Are Getting Brighter And Dimmer At Semi Random Intervals

It could just be in my head, but I swear that my headlights got a little brighter when I hit the accelerator. The car just came out of the shop on Friday, after the alternator and battery were replaced. I don't recall it doing this before then. Is this... normal for a car that's just had the alternator replaced?

Gen 3 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: During Call, Music / Sound Stops With Random Intervals

My T-Mobile MyTouch with Android 1.6 OS paired fine as a phone and mp3 player. The mp3 player is less than perfect however.

1) When playing a track, the sound will stop for 1/2 a second at seemingly random intervals. It seems that it's more like the stream is being paused than the audio is just dropping out. I turned off all the auto-update features in the phone in case it was because the phone was checking for email or something. It still happens.

2) When I take a call, the music stops, the call happens, and when I hang up the music plays out of the phone. I can re-connect the Bluetooth audio manually on the Nav screen Audio option and it's back to the car again.

Lexus RX 2004-09 :: Random Vibration And Noise From Under Body Near Engine

For the past month or so, my RX has been making this weird vibration and noise from the under body near the engine (maybe transfer case?) It is usually when it's cold and at low speed. But sometimes it does it even when the engine's warmed up for couple minutes.

I did change the transfer case fluid and rear differential about 3 months ago. Not sure if this is related.

Chevrolet - Lumina :: 1991 - Stalls While Driving At Random Intervals Between 1 To10 Minutes - Unplugged Wire

I have a 1991 Chevy Lumina and I believe this wire is the root of my problems. I

wasn't the one who unplugged it but it seems it was unplugged as an easy way to get around a problem. When unplugged the car runs but the performance is off, It doesn't feel like it has the same power as it does when it's plugged in and it also sounds different when in idle. When the wire is plugged in the car stalls while driving at random intervals between 1 and 10 minutes and needs to be jumped to start it back up. I will attach pictures of the wire and its location within the surrounding area.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Battery Light Has Been Coming On For Few Minutes Then Going Off At Random Intervals

2004 f350 w 125000 miles.

I had diagnostic done at Autozone and no problems from check or OBD. The battery light has been coming on for a few minutes then going off at random intervals. Today I was towing trailer and quads, around 3500 lbs, to go riding and it was on most of the time running on interstate and highways.

Seems like the serpentine belt doesn't have as much tension as I would expect. Is there an easy way to change the serpentine? That looks to be a real pita.
