Ok, well... not really, but one of my boys made the connection as it does sound like a cricket stuck in there chirping now and again.
I am just wondering if anyone else has taken the fan out and oiled the bearing and put it back in? I did that in one of my trucks years ago as a temporary fix and years later I sold it and it was still working fine. I assume it is a sealed bearing, but all I did was drill one small hole on top of the bearing and dropped some oil in while spinning it and then sealed it again with a small dab of caulking.
Don't get me wrong, I will order a new one when I go to order a list of parts here, but for the time being, I am thinking the quick solution would be to do the above. I really do not like squeaks and rattles....
Thoughts?
