Loud noises created by the air conditioner - are terrible? All you want is silence, while Air Conditioner Viking 186B is working? To fix that problem you must fan blade. Air conditioners have a fan blade in the front and a fan blade in the rear. Check both fan blades for damage. If a fan blade is damaged, or is rubbing against the fan housing, replace it. Don’t need to panic. It is easy to replace, and you can do it at home. Just follow our guide.
- Make sure that the power is disconnected from the unit, either at the circuit breaker or disconnect box.
- Remove all the screws securing the grille at the top of the unit and flip the grill to expose the motor and fan blade. You may also need to remove a panel and clips to have enough slack in the motor wires.
- Use an adjustable wrench to loosen the set screw on the fan blade and pull the blade off of the motor shaft.
- When you’re ready to install the new blade, make sure the set screw is loose enough to slide the blade onto the shaft.
- Align the set screw with the flat section of the motor shaft and tighten the screw.
- Realign the grille, motor, and blade, and secure it with the screws. Make sure you secure the motor wires and reinstall any panels as necessary.
Loud noises are gone! Now your air conditioner must work like a new one. If you can’t do replacement of the fan blade - don’t hesitate to contact our customer support and arrange a meeting!
