My air conditioner compressor seems to be making a noise when turned on or when accelerating, it sounds like a bad vibration but cant really pin point the noise. Could this be the a/c cluth or the engine cooling fan cluth gone bad. Noise stops when a/c is turned off. Need help before something breakes and I really get hot.

IF you have the heat on, and turn the blower on, do you still hear it?

the noise happanes when the fan for a/c is on. Its does not matter whether the a/c switch is on. Just that the fan switch is on. It happens sitting in park or nutreral reving the engine or going down the the road.A/c belt was taken loose and engine started so a/c comp was isolated from the system, and fan switch inside car was agin turned on and noise is still present when fan switch is turned on. Could this noise be from radiator cooling fan cluth going bad and or computer doing something to the system or what. Any help is much apreciated thanks

Without hearing it, it sounds like the blower motor is the problem.
