Noise from dashboard

Post by YegsTC »

Hi all,

I have a Jetta 2 CLX. 1800 carb. Auto.

Every now and then, there's is a sound eminating from the dash =board. Sounds like the fan belt is loose. When I hit the dash, it goes away. I have check all the fluids thinking it could be a warning of some sort but fluids are all fine. No warning lights on the cluster.

This happened before when I got the car in November for 2 days and then stopped. Started again on Sunday.

Does anyone have an idea of what this may be?

All I can think is that it is the oil pressure buzzer. Can be triggered by over or under pressure. Not sure why it goes off when you smack it but sounds are generally an issue to diagnose on the net other than actually hearing it.
