92 Accord Buzzing Sound below Glove Box

This sounds like a recirculating air door actuator with stripped gears, listen for a change in sound when you move from recirc to outside air, when on recirc the noise inside the vehicle will be greater than when on outside air. Remove the glove box to look at it I hope this helps. Take care.

bad relay

What kind of car? It is very common for air recirculation doors to break and cause a ratcheting sound like that when you first start

Before you do anything, try to jump start it....sounds like low battery..

sound like starter relay bad.

If you mean the climate control blower motor, it's usually under the dash on the passenger side on Hondas.

      To install:
      
6. Install the blower unit and tighten the retaining nuts.
7. On air conditioned vehicles:
   1. Install the lower covers and the retaining band.
   2. Install the control unit bracket and carefully engage the wiring connectors to their proper location.
   3. Install the kick panel and reposition the carpet.
8. Connect the wiring to the blower assembly. For non-air conditioned vehicles, install the air duct and tighten the screws.
9. Install the glove box frame and install the glove box. Note that some of trim on the frame is held with 2-sided tape; replace the tape when reassembling as necessary.

1988-91 Prelude

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Remove the glove box and frame (lower support).
3. Remove the 4 screws and remove the heater duct. Fig. 5: The glove box and frame are secured by several small screws
   
   
4. Remove the 3 mounting bolts.
5. Unplug the wiring connectors from the blower motor, resistor and recirculation controller. Remove the blower motor assembly.
6. Reinstall in reverse order. Make certain the blower mating surfaces are tightly sealed.

There are two filters.
You have the remove the glove box. Three screws on the bottom edge. Remove them, then open the glove box door. Three plastic covers along the top edge, remove with something that won't cut them up. Remove screws under them (two screws under the center one). Then, push the glove box hinges toward each other to disengage the clips in the dashboard. Then pull the glove box assembly down and out (when the box is part way out, disconnect the glove box light connector before you take it the rest of the way).
Once the glove box is out, remove the three screws (two on the right, one on the left) of the glove box reinforcement panel, then remove the panel (the bar looking thing next down from where you took the three screws out of the bottom of the glove box).
Release the snap at the bottom and remove the air conditioning filter lid.
Slide the upper and lower filter assemblies out of the evaporator housing.
Remove the old filters from the filter carriers, clean the carriers and inset the new filters.
Reverse procedure to install.
I know that this sound involved, but just take your time, and you can do it.
Hope this helps you.

Sure the culprit is in the HVAC system. The cover under the glove box needes to be removed to look and see theres a relay panel and motors that move the air doors inside the duct work the motors are on the out side and can be diffacult to change so even if your going to hire the work done it might be nice to look first so you'll know if your talking to a person that should do this work for you Quizzing the professional sales person at your local auto parts store you'll find the person that they know that buys the parts that fix these things if he buys lots of this kind of part that shop is likly to have a person that can go right to it and fix it cheap and quicker than someone puzzeling over the repair manuel and trying difference things with your money

The noise is coming from the blend door motors.
All of the climate control doors (vents, defroster, temperature, recirculation etc) are controlled by electronic motors. As the motors age they tend to make a buzzing noise when they move.

There is a software upgrade that is available to minimize the noise, but it will always make the noise to some degree.

Hope this helps.

BLOWER UNIT REMOVAL

1. Remove the glove box.

2. Remove Glove box FRAME
3. Pull back the carpet and remove the kick panel. Remove the control unit bracket mounting nuts (4). Disconnect the connectors (5) and remove the control unit and bracket.

1. Without A/C:

• Remove the self-tapping screws (3) and remove the heater duct.
• Remove the blower (3 nuts).
• If the car has A/C, remove the blower unit according to the sequence shown
• BLOWER MOTOR REPLACEMENT
  Refer to illustration for blower unit disassembly and reassembly, noting the following:
  
  • Before reassembly, make sure that the air door and linkage moves smoothly without binding.
  • When reattaching the recirculation control motor, make sure its positioning will not allow the air door to be pulled too far. Attach the recirculation control motor and all linkage, then apply battery voltage and watch the recirculation control door movement. If necessary, loosen the holding screw and move the recirculation control motor up or down
  • CONTROL ROD ADJUSTMENT
    Connect the recirculation control motor connector to the main wire harness and turn the FRE/REC switch to "REC". Hold the air door closed, then connect the control rod to the clip on the arm.
