I am not sure what I can do. The heater is making a loud noise, sort of like one of those party favors that people "blow" It is a 99 Grand Prix. And any ballpark on how much it will cost to fix? nickwarner Veteran / Moderator Jan 21, 2010, 9:12 AM Post #2 of 3 (1359 views) Re: 99 Grand Prix-noises coming from heater when I put it on high Sign In chances are good it the bearings in your blower motor going out. The motors generally cost about $50 on average and aren't too bad of a job. My friend has a 98 Grand Prix so next time I see her I'll peek at it and see how bad it is for access. As I recall its a do it yourself job with a metric 1/4 drive socket set, and a u-joint can come in handy. Eventually the motor will quit spinning, so if possible it would be worth your time to do it sooner than later so you can continue to have heat. When you pull it out look in the housing with a flashlight. I've seen fine bits of leaves and such pack in there before that need to get vacuumed out.

Also like he mentioned I've seen leaves or pieces of paper get in there and hit the "squirrel cage", kinda sounds like a card in the spokes of a bike. Either way the motor will have to come out to see, if it's just debris in there, then its a cheap fix...........   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
