Default Re: What did you do to your Crossfire today?

My typical service adventure.
Changed oil and filter to stop my Odometer from yelling at me every time I start the car. Changed the Cabin Air Filter....and lost a retaining clip somewhere behind the passenger floorboard.
Sought out the location of the Resister Pack (thank you forum), and immediately regretted opening it AFTER I'd vacuumed the floor mats. There must have been a squirrel living in my fan housing...that, or 11 years of accumulated dirt takes a lot of space. Removed the resister pack just to be sure I could do it. I suspect mine is bad - going bad, as I get the intermittent fan operation most others have had. Let's see if just detaching and reconnecting the leads makes a minor difference. If not, the forum already told me where to buy a new one.
Besides the missing Cabin Air filter housing clip, I also lost some meat behind in the sheet metal under the dash. I can never do work on the Crossfire without a blood sacrifice...gotta start wearing long sleeves for this stuff.
Fan still makes a deep throated hum, very obvious above 4 on the switch. I'd hoped the debris reduction would handle that, but no luck. It does look like the fan could come out fairly easy, but I didn't actually try it.
