I posted about this fan noise a few weeks ago thanks for all the help... By the way no one replyed ... There is a fan on the electric board I don't know the name off the top of my head ... If you feel under the glove box you will see a hole the size of a quarter on the lower right side of the corner and you will feel some air getting sucked in ... Chances are your fan is going bad

I had an irritating noise in the cabin once, removed the wife and the problem disappeared for some odd reason ?

I'm going to speak to my SA about helping me do the same thing. Probably an expensive fix though!

Were you able to determine what this chirping was. Mine is doing the exact same.
