How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit before touching the fan or rear components.
- Check ventilation: Ensure that intake and exhaust grilles are not blocked by walls, cabinets, or dust.
- Inspect fan: Remove the rear panel and verify the condenser fan blades are not rubbing against the shroud. Adjust or tighten the fan as needed.
- Accept normal sounds: Mild gurgling or whooshing is often normal refrigerant flow. Only act if the noise is unusually loud or new.
