Beater Boxster Climate Fan Motor...

I was able to score a set of sun visors and a climate controller today. The visors went on without a hitch, went up, went down, lights worked fine.

Installed the climate controller. For the first time I was able to see what the buttons did. My old display was so bad I couldn't read anything. I was feeling good until I tried manually increasing the fan speed and could hear a faint repetative thump inside the dash. My thoughts either the fan blades are hitting an obstruction or the motor is toast.

I plan on removing the motor assembly and bench testing it. Any advise before I do this? I've read on the internet that somehow a foreign object made its way pass the pollen filter. I can check that too.

For those of you that have replaced the fan motor, did you remove the passenger seat? I could barely move around when I was checking fuses and relays on the drivers side. I'm not sure I can manuever underneath the dash without making more room

As always any input would be greatly appreciated!
