New Noise Emerging from Glove Compartment

So when I turn on my A/C... I hear a clicking noise coming from the glove compartment and as I raise the fan speed of the A/C, the clicking noise gets quicker with the speed of the fan. Has anyone dealt with this before? Is this an issue about to blow up into a larger issue?

I recently recharged my freon but that was maybe a month ago.

Thanks in advance.

Have you checked to make sure a leave didnt make its way down to the blower drum? Will make a noise like when you were a kid with a card stuck in the spokes

Yes in that general vincinity... maybe above it. If you open the glove compartment and look in, it seems to be coming from directly behind the glove compartments back wall.

No I havent but I will do so this weekend. I would think the leave would get beaten up and break up given the amount of time I had the A/C running and all kinds of speeds. I try to just drown out the noise right now with my music.
