Unit makes a high-pitched squealing or chirping noise intermittently.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Worn condenser fan motor bearings, failing circulation pump bearings, misaligned fan blade

Safety First: Disconnect power before touching any moving parts.

Locate noise: Remove front and rear panels as needed and briefly power the unit to identify whether the noise comes from the fan or pump.
Inspect fan blade: Ensure the fan blade is not rubbing against the shroud and is properly secured to the motor shaft.
Replace worn motor: If the squeal is internal to the motor and persists, replace the condenser fan motor or water circulation pump as appropriate.
