Default AC Making Noise

Hello all!

Not sure how to explain this but here it goes...my AC is making a fluttering noise, it sounds like a card fluttering on a bicycle tire. The AC is cooling fine and works at all settings from the control. A friend told me it might be something stuck in the blower motor, but I'm not sure where that is located. Does anyone know where the blower motor is on a 2010 Ford F150 Lariat?

Thanks in advance.

It is located on the passenger side firewall. It will be round with number 6 or number 8 bolts. Not too bad of a job. Cut the blower on, raise your hood, and put your hand on the housing. You might be able to feel something slapping around. Either that or one if the fins on the squirrel cage broke.

I looked and didn't notice it under the hood. I'll take a picture and post it.

I look under the hood on the passenger side and didn't notice anything that looked like a fan. Couldn't tell inside either. Any suggestions?
