Default Not To Bad

I have a 2006 Monte SS that had the dreaded ticks which got worse over time. Mine was out of warranty and fortunately my local mechanic knew exactly what it was. I was lucky he was honest enough to be able to get to the part thru the glove box instead of tearing half of the dash out. Only cost a couple of hundred. I thought I got away cheap

i wonder if it would be a good idea to replace the heater core one as well as the ac one. while you are there why not it is my own opinion on why go back in there for the heater if it goes right?

well i just got done and there is a few steps that was skipped for the how to.
with the passenger side to get the third aculator and the other two. it is first remove the glove box it is the only way to get to the two where the heater core is. also you need to remove it to see what you are doing to get to the third one all the way in the corner the bolts that hold them in is actually a 7/32 size socet on a small wratchet. make sure it is the type that swivels at the handel.

Mine does it, but I found it only happens with mine when I move the passenger side air temperature adjuster, and even then it's not every time I do. Otherwise, it's never a problem, so I just learned not to mess with it and leave it alone.

Mine does this periodically. The fuse for the blower motor is pulled right now because it will just run constantly if I leave it in. I was suggested to replace the Blower Motor Control Module. The ticking is only every now and then though
