Funny noise from my work hack

Post by shweatypox »

I have an electronic noise coming from below my steering wheel in my Corolla Fielder. It sounds a bit like an electric motor getting stuck. Does anyone know what it could be?

no alarm, it's weird, know how you change the air con air flow between modes and you can hear the electrics redirecting, its a bit like that but the noise comes from the bottom left area of my steering wheel. Ill have to have a really good look as I can't see anything under there :?

Really this noise is listening like drum so you change the air con air flow between modes and you can hear the electrics redirecting, its a bit like that but the noise comes from the bottom left area of my steering wheel this is my personal suggestion for you.
