- compressor and auger/beater-motor bearing wear producing loud noise or strain

Quick check — and when it's not DIY
There's one thing worth checking before you book anyone: listen for a hum with no start, or a repeated clicking sound, and confirm the unit is actually getting power. Also, check the breaker hasn't tripped and the unit's overload protector hasn't kicked out, since both can look like a dead compressor. If none of that changes anything, a failing compressor is a sealed, high-pressure, refrigerant-charged part, and replacing one requires an experienced technician and recovery equipment no homeowner has on hand.
