heating noises question

Ok I searched and found something similar to this but I tried the solution and it didnt work.
Problem- when I turn on the heat and put the fans on (even low)there is this ticking noise comming from the glove box area, Im pretty sure that its not something random that vibrating because when I turn the fans up it rattles faster,
Question-Whats in that area that could go bad or cause this noise?
Anyone else have/had this problem?

Thanks,
J

I have a '92 with a similar problem. I think it could be the heater motor bushing is worn, causing the fan to rub a bit on the housing.
Good luck.

There is some piece of debris caught in the blower motor case
just pull the motor out and you should find it. You may have to
remove the glove box to get to it I can't remember.
