A bad AC compressor can make noise, but it doesn't always do so consistently. It may produce loud clunking, grinding, or hissing sounds when it's struggling or failing, but it might also operate quietly at times, depending on the nature of the issue. If you hear unusual noises intermittently, it's a good idea to have it inspected, as it could indicate a problem that may worsen over time.
Somthing to do with the AC.
Yes
Wth? No!!
No, crepitus is a sign of fracture.
If it's a creaking noise then it is most likely that your compressor is broken.
A/C compressor? A/C compressor?
The A/C system compressor operates when in the defrost mode. If the noise is also heard when running the A?C it is more than likely a problem with the compressor/pulley.
Refrigerators make noise due to the compressor, fan, and other moving parts working to cool and circulate air. The noise is normal and indicates that the fridge is functioning properly.
It's not supposed to.
start by checking a/c compressor.
A cold room compressor may make noise while running due to several factors, including worn or damaged components, loose mounting hardware, or debris within the unit. Vibrations from the compressor can amplify sounds if it's not properly secured. Additionally, issues like refrigerant flow problems or a failing motor can also contribute to increased noise levels. Regular maintenance can help identify and mitigate these noise issues.
Was the proper amount fo oil installed in the compressor and accumulator when they were replaced? That is the reason ,I, as a repair shop owner will NOT use a remanufactured compressor.
