Hi, I just noticed a fast ticking sound coming from somewhere under the steering wheel near the pedal area or under the steering column. Just wondering what it could be. Just started today. No lights on and the vehicle seems to drive fine.

Hi,

Is the sound constant? Is there anything that causes it to start or stop? Is the A/C air flow working properly?

Is it possible for you to record it and upload it for me to hear?

Let me know.

The A/C seems to work fine. The car is turned off and it does this off or on. Sorry for the late reply. I am planning on taking it in because I have a warranty but I would like to make sure it would be covered and not have the dealership playing the guessing game. It is constantly ticking and I have a video attached.

Hi,

For some reason, I can't hear anything in the video. If it is a clicking under the dash, chances are it is either a relay or one of the air flow actuators.

If possible, could you let me know what is found?
