Mice in the ventilation system
Well, this is the second time we've had mice in the ventilation system. The cabin air filter had a nest in it. Does anyone know how they are getting in?

Usually they go in by the room department through the fresh air door. The fresh air door is under the cowl top cover. Make sure the cowl cover is secure and not broken.

Thanks for the reply. I looked at the cowl and it appears to be in good condition. Based on the drawing, exactly where is the fresh air door?

Thanks, I will take a closer look. Anything to stop the mice. This last one got chewed by the fan and spit out to the other side. Cleaned it out and almost got the smell out.

mice
I know this is an old post, but I'm hoping for a reply as I am desperate dealing repeatedly with mice building nests in the cabin air filter. I tried taking the cowl off, popped all the front clips out, removed wipers and antenna, but could not get any further due to fear of breaking it. I slid a screwdriver in under, but couldn't get any movement. Got any tips? I hope the hood doesn't need to come off first. Thanks, Sundug

place dryer sheets in the engine compartment. mice don't like them.
i've had same problem. I had to remove filter and fan as the last nest was in the fan. Hard to clean out and have been spraying in lysol from the cowl. |
