ANIMAL CONTROL!!!!!! j/k

What I would do is (unless you know how to do it yourself) get someone to take off the parts you need unti lyou see the thing and then once you get it all cleaned up put it all back together.

Is the object definately colliding with the fan, if so you can
get to the fan by removing the screws at the lower corners of
the glovebox either side at the footwell, you also need to remove some of the trim near the space between the door hinges and the side of the dash.
Remove screws from inside the glove compartment, disconnect the power connector to the glove
box switch and it should come off with a little teasing to
reveal the fan in the bottom corner. You can either unscrew the fan unit from its casing or there is a vent grill which can allow you to see with a torch if there is anything in there.
If its too difficult to get at get an expert to do the job for you.

wow...never heard that before.

alright here it goes you guys can laugh all you want now :-p. i took it all apart and a damn field mouse was living in my fan unit yes right in the fan he had his freaking nest in there if anyone ever seen a mouse nest before you would know what i was talking about! anyhow i guess he got to close to one of the plastic blades and smack it killed him i have no freaking clue how he got up in there but i cleaned it all down with some alchohal and its all better now! ROTFLMAO has this ever happened to anyone else before?

[stelica85]

that has to be the worst luck ever, Just curios was your car sitting for a very long time? i don't think a mouse would make a nest overnight.

[gjunon]

you would be surprised my car was only sitting for 2 days when i went to the desert that damn mouse worked fast!

I hit a bird in my car and it got stuck on the front of my radiator. That was not as bad as the mouse though.

[gjunon]

my father said there should be a netting of sorts infront of the air conditioning duct leading outside so things like that does not happen so does anyone know if there is one or should i get under and make one?
