I seem to have a slight annoying issue w/ my Cruze which started today, I start my car & I hear this weird like clicking sound in a pattern like sound that happens if the HVac is on or off, the cd player on or off, the engine running or not running. All different speeds etc. It in gear not in gear, R, D or P & N as well I have tried different ways but the sound continues to happen, even if the car is shut off & the key is not in the ignition.

I have took a brief 1min video, however the video merely sucks & didn't get a really good sound bite, but when it gets to 55secs to 1min you can hear it really well. Please everyone have a listen & please excuse how I got it, again the sound is quite terrible.

Are you moving around in the driver's seat when you hear this? If so, check under the seat.

Well I thought this as well, but the sound is coming directly from the dash area near driver area, I thought at one point it was the radio "cd" player making the weird noise maybe it was ending it life. But when the car is off & no key in - the sound still persists - I even locked the car while in it thinking maybe that would stop it, but it still persists.

That's a stuck HVAC damper. Fiddle with the climate control settings and see if you can get it to change position and shut it up.

Will this sound slight clicking pattern soon kill the battery; presuming its trying to fix itself?

BCM should shut it down in a few minutes.
