Leaves in the heater motor area? Or possibly may have sucked some paper into the fan motor when AC on recirculate mode

Clicking noise from dash near a/c controls and radio area. possibly fan assembly fault

I doubt if you have a fan problem. More than likely you have a bad actutor motor. There are 2 small electric actuator motors under the dash. The temperture door actuator moves the air temperature door, which controls the temperature of the air coming from either the a/c or heater vents. The mode actuator (which is probably the one you hear clicking) controls the mode of operation, or more simply, which vents the air will be coming out of. When the internal gears of the mode actuator fail and start slipping, they make a loud repetative "clicking" sound, which is what you are hearing. Another symptom that may or may not accompany this situation is a longer than usual wait time for your mode selection to occur. So to sum up, a loud repetative clicking sound from the center of the dashboard possibly accompanied by a longer than usual wait time for your ac,heat or defrost mode to occur, usually indicates a failing mode door actuator.

Clicking noise in AC/Heater unit. Doesn't do in

the motor that opens the vent is stuck. Put in it fresh air mode. the vent should be on the pass side behind the glove box. Take off the glove box and disconnect the motor and replcae it. Or the cheap way is to not use that mode

Ac and deforst buttons have no power, blows hot on window only

since your buddy is a Chrysler tech, he should know that the heater module can be recalibrated with the scan tool or pull the POSITIVE cable off for five mins and put back on restat the car and select all modes, I assume this worked prior to batt replacement, sevice manual helps you do a manual calibration in different modes. GOOD LUCK RDJRP

CLICKING SOUND WHEN HEATER IS ON, UNLESS RECYCLE MODE IS ON

Sound like a vacumm leak at one of the baffle door controlers. Look at heater box when makeing noise, should be able to see which controler is going in and out. Once you isolate which is the culprit check the hose circuit for that door.

WILL NOT SWITCH AIR FLOW STUCK IN DEFORST VENT

when your car is in defrost it has an ac cycling it removes the moisture then sends the air over the heater core depending on how warm you set it you can feel warm or cold but the ac is always cycling...ridding the moisture...you need a good ac tech it will be okay...its just expensive going into the heater core if needed...!
