Hi everyone,

The ac/heater fan on my 2002 S60 T AWD is making a faint chirping noise when in runs. Any ideas? I can't tell at the higher speeds because the blower make too much noise. Could it be the blower motor resistor? Thanks in advance.

That is usually the motor going bad.

 

Can I replace that myself? If so, where can I look for parts?

 

I replaced mine fairly easily. It was right behind the glovebox. That was on a 99 V70 though, so I don't know how different yours is. Here's one place to buy the motor: http://www.eeuroparts.com/productdet...&code=8993- $188.90. Or FCP Groton, $189.00, http://www.fcpgroton.com/p2series/p2cooling.htm (Aftermarket at FCP Groton is $109)

 

Yes you can its a little more complicated then the earlier cars.
It just takes a little time.

 

Man.......It's a pain! I had the same problem and took it to auto shop to replace the motor blower, end up cost for $450!!!

 

Cut away the insulation and if you cant get the back screw off. Break it off.

 

My car is doing this right now as well, need to bring to dealer for my free blower motor.

Mine only does it when it is cold in the morning, or sometimes when I go around a corner fast(I live in MN).

 

free blower motor?! mine is doing this too, I'm guessing it's going to get really annoying soon.

 

My car is still under warranty....this will be one of many things I get for free. Like the engine I got.
