What is this?

[Browzer52]

Small electrical component located directly behind the ashtray on a 1986 930(911)Has a small outboard fan,activated when key turned to on position and happily humms away.

It draws air past a temperature sensor that tells the automatic heat control how warm the cabin is.

How do I make it quiet? I can hear this thing all the time.

Thanks,
Bryan

There may be something wrong with yours. I have a couple cars with this little fan and I can't hear either one. Without listening to yours myself, I can't offer much advice.
