Ticking

[chewbaca]

Ok sometimes when I start my car and the recirculate button is off, there is a nonstop ticking sound from I think behind my glovebox. It's not a huge issue during the summer but during the winter when you need your windows defogged and you have to leave the recirculate on it sucks.

When I push the button on though the ticking will stop.

Any ideas?

your the second person ive answered this in a week https://www.thegalantcenter.org/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif . its the motor that opens and closes the vents for the recirc. mine does the same thing. havent got it fixed yet. if i remember correctly its about 80-90 bucks from mitsu dealer, dont think you could get it anywhere else. they told me it has a stop or something on both ends and one of the stops broke and the motor just keeps going around hence the clicking or some shit like that. i dont know maybe it can be rigged to work right havent really looked at it. ill check it out later and let you know.
