glad it was that easy. Incase someone else see's this, another thing you can do is clean the ambient temp sensor on the IHKA front plate. (The three slats). If you smoke or are just dirty, the fan and sensor will get gummed up and it can a) make noise and b) cause the HVAC to not work properly. Its farily easy to take apart once you get the IHKA module out. I cleaned mine with MAF cleaner (same concept).
