make noise if you put the eat on too? could be the blower but if there's nothing more than normal noise with the heat on, then turn the ac back on & look under the hood at the ac pulley. is it spinning at the same rpm as the belt/pulley? look at the center to see if it's spinning & at the same speed as the pulley. if it seems like it's makin a ton of noise inside it then the compressor shelled out on ya.

otherwise post vid if u can.
