Does anyone have blower motor squeal?

My 03 HL emits a low high pitched squealing noise when I run the blower fan at low speed. Has anyone else had this problem, and if so is there anything I can do about it short of replacing the blower? Thanks!

make sure no object from the glove box is catching the blower. I have had this happen.

Checked the golve box, nothing hanging out. The sound is more of a high pitched whining sound, maybe a bearing problem in the motor. It seems to disappear, or at least I can't hear it, when I turn up the speed on the blower. Today it was hardly noticable. Just one of those annoying little noises!

I had the same problem when the fan was running on low. Dealer had to replace the fan. I fortunate in that it was done under warranty. Second fan has been OK so far.
