AC/Heat Fan runs continuously and Rear end roaring noise

AC/Heat Fan runs continuously. AC and heat work fine but when I turn fan to off position the fan continuous to run. AC and heat turn off but fan blows. Also have a rear end roaring noise from passenger side rear. I had car alligned few times and still has same noise. Three sets of tires all different brands. Dealers answer is to rotate tires. Local mechanic suggested to rotate tires at every oil change but this still did not help. Noise starts almost immediately after putting new tires on. Bought new in 06 and car has been doing this every since.

    I have the same a/c problem. Did you ever find a solution to it?

  • Curt Downs May 11, 2010

    I'm not sure of the Nissan set up of the AC/heat, this fan on situation may be normal. My Ford truck has a system that continues to blow (low setting) after air/heat is off. To turn off the Ford, there is an off indicator to turn to, if u leave it on defrost, or any of the dash or floor vent settings, it fan will continue to blow at the low speed. You may have to switch to a different setting to stop it completely, check your owners manual for that info.
    Your wheel noise is interesting (although u would probably say annoying!). Does the sound level increase w/ speed? U say it starts when u have new tires installed, does that mean it gradually 'goes away' as tires wear down? Does it make the same noise while driving in the rain? Have the rear brakes ever been changed? Have any of the mechanics that looked at it checked the wheel bearing on that wheel? Lots of questions, because it's difficult to diagnose w/out being there.

Sounds like the wheel bearing on the right rear hub may be defective, that would cause the noise if the tires are ok. As far as the fan goes not sure this isn't working as designed.

SOURCE: when car is running and fan comes on

Sonds like the fan to me. Yes, those are available separately. Water pump is internal inside of the timing cover and those are pretty bullet proof. Fan is most likely NG. Not that common. I have replaced only 1 in 12 years with Nissan.

SOURCE: my steering wheel shakes expecially when i go over 40 miles per h

hi there. does the steering wheel shake from the moment you start moving? or is it at certain speeds.
If it's from the moment you start moving you may have a seperated tire. If it's at certain speeds then you might want to try and get your tires balanced. Hope this helps you out

SOURCE: What is the proper sequence for rotating tires?

My understanding is that with radial tires that are in use today, you should rotate front to back on same side. Not side to side.

SOURCE: not-too-loud roar sounding

could be a wheel bearing. get the car up where you can spin the wheel, now grab the strut spring with your hand and spin the wheel. you will be able to feel "roughness" on the wheel that has a bad bearing.

Why does the fan located in the car for the heat and ac make loud noise when you turn it on

Hello
Firstly, what kind of noise?
1) it could be some thing got into the fan blades and with the fan running = it makes noise.
2) Maybe you got worn out bearings on the fan blades

Even with a fully charged battery i need to use a battery pack to start the van when it does start the cooling van comes on for a minute then goes off and that continues

Check rear AC in van and turn it off. Most vans have dual AC. Even if the front AC is off, the rear is still usually on and some vehicles have the cooling fan and condenser fan run together to help with cooling. Check relay and fuse also.

After I turn off my car, there is a loud sound like a motor running under the car. Is this from the compressor for the air suspension? I also get a roaring noise when I am driving that comes from the rear...

Then noise you hear after shutting off the car very well might be the air suspension compressor. The air ride system is still activated for a half hour after the vehicle has been shut off. The roaring noise from the rear could be a bad bearing. The rear axle seals don't always leak when a bearing goes out. So it's not a conclusive indication that they are good just because the seals aren't leaking. If your mechanic isn't too versed in differentials it may be advisable to seek an opinion of a reputable transmission shop (however, that may be a difficult task).

Bad Clutch Fan? Rear ac/heat don't work front only works on 4

The fan clutch isnt engaged at all times, therefore it may be normal to hold it in place (not recommended). On these trailblazer's 4.2L engine the fan clutch is electronically controlled. Usually when this vehicle's fan clutch malfunctions, there is a random ticking noise while idling or at a stop, also the "service engine soon" may turn on. As for the the fan speed problem, this may be a faulty blower resistor malf (typical) or climate control unit may be faulty. Hopefully this helps!!

98 Saturn SL AC/cooling fan will NOT work

Do not let this car over heat a blown head gasket will ensue. Locate and replace the fan relay, if that doesn't fix the problem unplug fan and use jumper wires to ground the plug then feed power to the positive side of plug to check fan, if that doesn't work replace the coolant temperature sensor located somewhere near the intake manifold or thermostat housing area.

AC/heat/defrost functions don't work

there is a blend door and a selector door in the HVAC system. These are run by vacuum or servo motors. Sounds like this little motor is your problem. Hope this helps you.
