Part: Blower motor

Video tutorial

This video explains how to resolve the issue of a noisy cabin fan. It specifically discusses an Alfa Romeo Mito, but the advice applies to all makes. The YouTuber gives several tips; the first is, if you have an automatic climate control system, to perform the vent calibration procedure.

The second is to check the air conditioning filter, which should not be clogged with debris such as leaves and dust. If there is a lot of debris, it means something is obstructing the fan. Thirdly, check that the fan is not damaged due to incorrect installation: it may not be secured properly and thus vibrates.

Inspect the rubber mounts at the back of the fan, as damaged ones can cause the fan to operate misaligned. Finally, to check that the fan is functioning correctly: with the fan disconnected, reconnect the wiring, hold it with one hand, and with the other, set the air to maximum.

If the fan does not vibrate, it is functioning properly.
