squealing when I turn on blower motor

Asked by Tom Sep 21, 2013 at 05:50 PM about the 2003 Dodge RAM 1500 SLT LB RWD

If the noise changes with the speed of the blower, I'd pull the Heater fan motor. If the noise is under the hood, it will take a little more digging. I usually change out the fan (squirrel cage) with the blower motor. Don't wait too long to change it out - you can eventually burn out the switch and/or resistor block.
