Strange noise from under dashboard
Hi I hope someone can help, today my paj started making a really odd noise from behind the dash, it sounds like a fan blowing air from behind the dash almost like the heater being on full, only it isn't!
another strange point is that the noise seems to increase when accelerating.
I am lost and have no idea what is happening.
please help.
Nathen

Re: Strange noise from under dashboard
I'm clutching at straws here, and not sure what it could be?
But have you checked the windscreen rubber seal - that can come loose, vibrate at speed and sound like the noise is coming from the dash. If it's this, you could silicone it back into place.

Re: Strange noise from under dashboard
I didn't know you could hear it when parked... still can't think of exactly what it could be, there are so many parts behind that dash!
I did have one that made a whirring noise, like the noise made by one of those old wind-up clocks, just before they chime the hour... that was the speedo face itself. I lubricated it with silicone and it was fine. But it didn't make the noise when parked, so no good for your problem.
