    Loaud AC Blower Noise

    One of my ACs is acting up.
    WHen I turn it on, I get a noise very similar to the noise a household garbage disposer makes.

    I looked up the motor, ordered a new one assuming it is the bearings - and -that was not it.

    The cage is straight. the blades are clean. What else could be causing it?

    FWIW,
    Called the factory. they said that the quarrel cage moves out 1/4 when the motor runs. So the placement of the cage should be as close as possible to the motor housing, without touching it. And of course, it needs to be balanced. And now I have a spare motor if anyone is interested

    I would be interested in your spare motor if it is the type that is variable speed.
