Hello All,
I have been searching and can not seem to find any answer. I have an 08 XLT EL, that has recently started squealing sounding like the power steering pump going bad. Today I was taking some more time trying to diagnose it, and I found the oddest thing that I can not understand. It seems to be happening when a compressor i presume is turning on, and then it will kick off and stop squealing. I then found it is isolated to the front defrost in some manner. When the squealing starts if I turn the heat completely off, it also stops almost instantly. The same happens if I have it on window defrost, or blended defrost, and change it to feet. It seems to only start this noise with the defrost selected. Does anyone have any ideas as to what this could be???
Thank you,
