First things first, I have a 99 camaro.

A while back my A/C was messed up, the air would only blow out of the central vent on the top of the dash, so I had a local shop by me fix it and they said it was something about my compressor overworking, it was like $100 and they fixed it, it blows cold air and it works.

But NOW theres this scraping noise when I turn it on, I'm 90% sure that its the fan that blows air to the vents. When I turn the dial for a/c power up the noise gets faster and higher, I popped off my passenger side vent and the sound got a bit louder so I know its somewhere in that area.

I don't know what it is, and what its doing, My A/C blows cold constant air, but I think I have a fan scraping something.

Should I pop off the bottom part of my glovebox where I'll assume my A/C stuff is and see whats up? or just leave it up to a shop around here to fix it.

I have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to A/C related stuff but I'm pretty mechanically inclined.

Remove the blower motor and check for debris.

Something is hitting the blower fan or the blower motor is going out. Could be a leaf, had the same problem in my truck. The entire heater box was full of leaves and crap. Either way its no big deal to fix.

where is the blower motor and how do I get to it?

I too have the same problem, its on the passenger side. I can't fiure out how to get access to the motor to clean it up.

I think theres some pop-in screws that are holding up that black plastic piece under the glove box.

But IDK if I'm feeling bold enough to start popping stuff like that off.
