What causes the ticking sound when the Lavida's air conditioning is turned on?
1 Answers
There may be several reasons for this: 1. Compressor belt noise: The sound could be caused by a faulty compressor belt tensioner or a malfunctioning compressor. This type of noise typically originates from the engine compartment and is relatively easy to identify. 2. Blower motor noise: This isn't just an air conditioning-related sound; it usually occurs when the external circulation is activated. The noise typically comes from inside the glove box and often manifests as a ticking sound. 3. Faulty temperature control switch or air circulation motor behind the dashboard: This sound usually emanates from within the center console panel. It is recommended to have the vehicle inspected at a professional repair shop.
