  • Not sure of brand ormake. It sounds like bearing noise. I can stomp on floor it stops for a few seconds.
  • What kind of noise is it making? Motor squeal?

    I've got an old 1990 RV and my blower motor in my furnace started to squeal. I removed the furnace and pulled it apart until I got to the motor. But, I could not easily remove the motor as there were pressed-on parts (could not remove squirrel cage fan). So, I set the unit on end and dribbled oil on the motor shaft so that the oil would wick down the shaft into the sealed bearings. I then flipped the motor over after a day and did the other side. Put it all back together and it has been silent after 2 years.

    If it starts to squeal again I will just repeat the above.
  • if your not sure of what your doing? call a mobil tech in your area. not the dealer.
