2002 Blazer dashboard noise
I have a 2002 Blazer LS that has a rattle near the area of the windshield, radio speaker, and passenger side airbag. It's difficult to localize. I lifted the speaker screen but couldn't feel anything loose. Dropped the glovebag down but still couldn't find anything loose. I'm leary of fooling with the airbag cover. Any suggestions?

Yup Kyle lead me on the right path when my '02 had that odd rattle. It was the conacle washers on the hood hinge that were toast. Put a folded up cloth under the hood on the weather strip to lift the hood a bit at the rear. Close the hood, drive it & see if the rattle goes away. Mine was an odd like plastic in steel sound, I damn near tore the dash apart wriggling things, hitting things etc.

Thanks, Rottidog and swartlkk. One washer added to the hood hinge bolt solved the problem.
Rottidog, I understand your frustration. I was seriously thinking about taking the
airbag cover off to see if something in there was loose. That could have been real bad if the bag had gone off...even if I had removed the fuse or battery ground...there was still the possibility of static. What a relief!
