Default Buzzing noise coming from dashboard

Hello CL,

Has anyone ever experienced a buzzing noise coming from their dashboard? It just started this morning. It sounds almost like a cell phone vibrating on a table does. I tried to see if it was my a/c, but the noise was the same with the fan on or off.

Thanks for the reply. I'm guessing it has something to do with the vacuum tubes behind there. I had a similar problem in another car before, and that wasn't cheap to fix. I was hoping someone would have a diy or something.
