RE: Clicking!
The Recirc motor most likely has a stripped gear. It is a major PITA to replace.

RE: Clicking!
How much $$$ at the dealer?
Could I do it myself?
Will it hurt anything to not get it fixed and just turn recirculate off?
Thanks!

Not sure on the price you might be able to do yourself. Leaving it off will not hurt anything.

RE: Clicking!
What would be involved in me replacing it?
How much for just the motor itself?
Are there instructions somewhere?
Thanks a lot for your help!!
