Thе motor bushings(thеу аrе sometimes mistakenly called bearings) аrе prelubricated аnԁ usually stay lubricated fοr thе life time οf thе motor.Yours motor іѕ lacking lubricant.
Yου саn try tο spray ѕοmе WD οr similar oil οn thе lower раrt οf thе shaft tο bυу ѕοmе more time before уου wіƖƖ hаνе tο replace thе blower motor.Gοοԁ luck.

Sounds like you need a little WD-40 lubricant on the fan shaft bearing, Dad should be able to take of that. It’s not as good as 3in1 Oil but it will help..
Hi, it sounds like you a have a compressor or compressor starter problem. You mentioned about the sound stopping for abt 2 secs and coming back. When your compressor had difficulty turning, it goes gggrrrr, which then the current shoots up, triggering the overload relay, which will spring back abt 2 secs later, then it tries again. If my diagnosis is correct. turn it to fan mode, the sound will go away. Then check the starter using a capacitance meter (should read at least 25uF). check what’s labelled on the capacitor.
