This could be due to a problem with your air conditioning compressor. This component is responsible for compressing the refrigerant in your A/C system. If it is malfunctioning, it could result in strange noises.

It is also possible that you have a loose or damaged belt in your A/C system. This could cause squeaking or screeching noises when the A/C is turned on. We recommend having a mechanic check the condition of your belts.

J

Check the level of your A/C refrigerant. If it is running low, it could cause the compressor to work harder and produce unusual noises. You may need to have your A/C system recharged.
