The fan motor on my indoor unit (inverter) stopped working so I've replaced the fan motor, it's now working again (the old fan motor was broken, hard to turn, not smooth).
Anyhow, it's all back together but the new fan is making a loud annoying noise, almost like a vibration. The faster I set the fan the louder it gets.
I was really careful to put it all back together tight and properly, could the new fan motor be faulty or could this be a bigger issue somewhere? ie might the new fan motor fail and this sound is a symptom of something else causing an issue?
Everything rotates by hand silently, the new fan motor and the blades etc. it's only when power is applied that the noise starts and it does sound like it's coming from the fan motor.
Anyone who has seen this before or has an idea what's going on I'd like some advice please.
