It could be your armature bearings need to be cleaned and repacked with grease or heat has caused the windings of the armature (shaft with wire coil attached) to wrap and needs to be to be rewound. Worst case is the armature shaft could be bent. You will have to disassemble the motor to get an Idea what the problem is. Clean the bearings and armature and look for contact rubbing on the armature and magnets. Check the shaft for balance and shaft straightness.

Samsung HLR5064W DLP TV, lamp timer light flashing, but there is a loud vibration noise like a fan blade hitting something at the back of the set. I replaced the lamp a couple of years ago, and I think...

Sounds like a bad color wheel----remove lamp---the wheel faces it--look for missing pieces or the wheel shattered---these are known for the wheel making a loud high pitched sound or even a grinding sound if the wheel shatters.

if wheel bad You Tube has video instructions for replacing it---seen several people able to do this themselves in about a hour. Google the model number to ("color wheel") to locate a replacement on the internet.

A loud vibrating sound

Bad compressor, if the compressor is going bad or the bolts that hold the compressor in place are loose. Check to make sure the bolts are tight. If not check the compressor with your hand and see how much it vibrates.

New heater blower fan is obnoxiously loud.

if it makes a kind of grinding noise then the internal brushes for the motor are going bad, if it rattles and vibrates a lot then the fan blades have been knocked out of balance.

Haier ESA 3185 AC won't cool; makes escalating loud vibrating noise near front panel/ filter

Have someone check the run capacitor of this unit. If the run capacitor is bad over shorted it can cause the unit to run and short cycle on a current overdraw. This makes for an electrical imbalance in the compressor motor. Next step is the compressor is faulty.
