I've got a newly acquired noise that sounds like a baseball card flapping in the spokes of a bicycle wheel when I turn the blower on. Want to pull the blower and clean it out.

I've got the glove box removed and can see the blower motor. Seems I read that there is a tab to release and a turn clockwise. Can't find that info that I thought I saw. Also, how does the electrical connector come apart?

Thanks in advance for any info !

Ok I figured it out. The wire can be pulled out by pushing in a tab on the forward end of the plug. (By forward I mean toward to front of the car.) There is a tab in the upper right hand corner of the motor, pull it out, and turn the assembly clockwise and it slips right out. Now it's just a matter of maneuvering the motor out of the space.
This is why mine was making the noise...
