What Causes Severe Vibration When the Air Conditioner is Turned On?
1 Answers
Severe vibration when the air conditioner is turned on may be caused by three main reasons. Below is an introduction to the possible causes of air conditioner vibration: 1. Faulty Air Conditioner Acceleration Device: Normally, when the air conditioner is turned on, the idle speed should increase by 200-300 RPM. If this acceleration device is damaged, severe vibration occurs. The acceleration device is essentially the idle speed solenoid valve, which may also become stuck and can be resolved by cleaning. 2. Throttle Body Carbon Buildup: Carbon buildup in the throttle body can cause the engine to struggle or barely manage to drive the compressor, leading to idle vibration. The throttle body needs to be cleaned. If the driving environment is harsh, it's best to clean it regularly, recommended every 10,000 kilometers. 3. Engine Mount Collapse or Damage: The engine's balance is disrupted, and turning on the compressor may reach a resonance frequency, intensifying the vibration.
