Annoying Cabin Rattle

[seamo44]

My Fusion has developed an annoying rattle. It sounds as though it is 2 plastic pieces bouncing around over our 'flat' roads. I have ruled out all the wiring harnesses under the seats, the seat belt assemblies & anything under the hand brake cowling. Any help or suggestions gratefully appreciated.

One of the most annoying rattles I've had so far was the lid of the storage compartment atop the dash vibrating. Fixed it with the fluffy half of some sticky velcro pads.

SOLVED!! You know the plastic cowling where the handbrake comes out, behind the gear stick? Well, if you unclip that & lift it up, there is a wiring harness that is held to the lifted part by two small clips. On mine, the clip on the near side is broken, the harness was rattling around freely. A dab of blue tack has done the job. Listen..........ahhhh, silence from there.

I know the feeling. It was so satisfying not to have a constant rattling in my right ear when I replaced the drivers door trim with one that actually attached to the car properly
