Mine was doing this and it turned out to be the blend door motor actuator, about $30 and 45mins to fix and now I have cold air again..... Does it sound like there is a mouse in the dash.... That's the best way I can describe it if you turn radio off and fan on 1 and heat in the middle.... You can hear this noise as its trying to find the right location to satisfy the temp setting.

I thought that this issue was related to the fan system. I will be watching this thread for further information on this situation because it drives me nuts when my truck does this. My truck does have the noise described or the " mouse" lol

I think I have the 'mouse' too. Sounds like a little click at idle with the music off?
