Clicking noise around the glovebox area

Hi folks,

Question......Everytime I shut off the car and if you sit for a minute with the car turned off, I hear some sort of clicking noise coming from the behind the glovebox area. It happens twice per cycle and it sounds like some sort of actuator I guess. Can anyone tell me what this clicking noise is?

Thanx

Sorry, couldn't help it.



Other than that, I have no clue.

Glad you spotted the obscure humor. I was worried about offending. Any luck finding the offending source of your complaint?

Nope, no luck on finding the culprit around the glovebox area. I am guessing it maybe a blend door actuator doing these funny noises. Was wondering if anyone else was hearing the same thing I'm hearing.

I'll butt out now and let the problem solvers take the helm. Good luck finding a solution.
