Possible Causes
Loose mounting bolts, Missing or hardened rubber vibration pads, Unbalanced fan blade, Misaligned outdoor unit on bracket
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power before touching the outdoor unit.
Steps:
- 1. Check mounting bolts: Tighten the bolts securing the outdoor unit to its base or wall bracket.
- 2. Install rubber pads: If the unit is mounted directly on concrete or metal, add rubber vibration isolation pads under the feet.
- 3. Inspect fan blade: Look for damage or missing pieces that could unbalance the blade; replace if necessary.
If vibration persists, a technician can check compressor mounts and fan balance more thoroughly.
