Default Toy Propeller Sound from Climate Control

Anyone know what is going on? My climate control make this toy propeller or windy wheather station sound. it's a constant but very low volume sqeaking and twirling sound. I tested out with the engine off and it's still there only when the fan is running. Also my passenger side a/c is a bit colder than driver's side. It points to air mix serve gone bad but I was wondering if anyone else has any other diagnosis.

**this applies to general 3RX forum. Mods can move this as appropriate.**

Is it your Nav system (cooling fan) by any chance? Mine was doing this when it was really cold, but the dealer couldn't duplicate and it hasn't come back.

I just wanted to furnish a response that it is indeed the noise coming from the Nav system as correctly mentioned by vlad_a above.
