Re: occasional humming from front during braking 850 1997

posted by  someone claiming to be Aaron on  Sun Jan 7 10:45 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Thanks to all of you for helping me with this bizarre little humming/moaning noise phenomenon. Ben was right, even though the noise occurs during the last few seconds of braking, it isn't the brakes -- it's definitely the blower motor! If I turn the blower off while the noise is occurring, the noise stops. Pretty compelling evidence. Also, if the blower is in any other position than the first position (i.e., lowest setting), the noise doesn't occur at all, which explains why the noise was so intermittent!

Thanks a lot - you all saved me a trip to the shop!
