Internal Cooling Fan Assembly
The rhythmic clicking is statistically attributed to mechanical interference between the rotating fan blades and the internal wire harness (blade-strike) or a failure within the fan's bearing race. Over time, the adhesive or clips holding the internal cables can degrade due to thermal cycling, allowing wires to protrude into the fan's swept volume. Replacing the fan assembly restores mechanical clearance and provides a new, balanced bearing system to eliminate noise.

Internal Fan Power Cable/Harness
If the clicking is caused by wire interference, the harness itself may have suffered insulation abrasion from repeated contact with the impeller. Replacing or properly re-securing this harness is the secondary method to prevent recurring mechanical contact with the cooling system's moving parts.
