Heat Fan - Ryan - 12-21-2004 Have any of you guys had a problem with the fan that blows out the hot air into your focus. I find my squeels like a mutha when it's set on 1...the low setting. It only started yesterday, and seems to only squeel when I'm breaking or let off the gas. It's also fine when it's blowing on 2 and up. Weird. Anyone have problems with the fan?? Heat Fan - ANTHONYD - 12-21-2004 Bearings on the fan motor are shot. Have it fixed under warrantee, or deal with it. The Focus is just one of those cars that sounds like it's 10 years old right out of the dealership. :P Heat Fan - Ryan - 12-21-2004 ANTHONYD,Dec 20 2004, 06:39 PM Wrote:Bearings on the fan motor are shot.Thanks Anthony, it's going in tomorrow. Cheers. Heat Fan - svt_rodg - 12-21-2004 mine started to make a noise too. sounds like something is loose and vibrating or something is caught in the fan. it is hardly noticeable, but i can hear it.

I'm sure I read somewhere (consumer reports?) that the heater fan was a problem area....and was also under recal. I'd check that and get it done gratis. Heat Fan - NOS2Go4Me - 12-21-2004 Mine hasn't made that noise, nor have I seen it against my recall list (checked against my VIN on the Ford.ca site). Probably was done before I bought the car.

Heat Fan - SLIP STREAM SVT - 12-22-2004 mine makes that sound too, but only in the morning when it's freezing cold, and only lasts about 30 seconds... i'm attributing the squeal to the cold though. Heat Fan - ANTHONYD - 12-22-2004 I've had it replaced twice and it still does it. It's a noice that occours for only a second or 2. I've learned to deal with it. :rolleyes: Heat Fan - Crazirich - 12-22-2004 i have noticed mine makes alittle wobbly noise when the car is first started but is then non noticable due to either car noise or it goes away Heat Fan - ANTHONYD - 12-22-2004 It seems to vanish once the fan has gone around a few times. Heat Fan - svt_rodg - 12-22-2004 mine started about 2 weeks ago, before the cold, and it is constant, only when the fan is on obviously |
