Hi all been a while i am going to one of the above which is making a chirping noise intermittently maybe once a day anybody had this and know a fix will run the motor tests when i go.

We just had a 3070 chirping machine. Tech's go onsite and never hear it. Eventually, it was heard, usually on longer runs.
Last call notes indicate tech:"Lubed all right door rollers, cleaned guides, swapped fuser units with upstairs machine onsite."
I don't believe fuser was the issue, as we have not heard back from the "upstairs" machine. This took 4 calls to this account to get to this point, I'm not positive we have heard the end of it..... it doen't help that the woman who is complaining can hear a silent dog whistle.....
I found this....
SHARP Thread - SwedenI About 4 items down on the post there is an entry for squeaking....its a little vague
Ive had the exit roller bushing on the front frame squeak. Both times the machine made no noise until i ran the crap out of it. Pull the front cover off at the exit unit (3 screws). Remove the 1 screw that holds the exit unit in, then 1 screw that holds a ground plate and the bushing, pull it out, lube and reinstall. Takes 5 minutes
Other noise we have had is the primary transfer belt will make a whine/squeel. There is a large foam block that rests against a tension roller ontop to keep it clean. Dam thing resonates on it. When you run the copier with plain paper your seldom hear it. Run with heavy paper and you will hear it when the machine runs at half speed. They also changed some felts for noise in the transfer belt. My machine which ive bent the foam back twice now is getting the felts to see if it does some voodoo to make this stop. Otherwise that foam is getting removed!
Evil will always triumph because good is dumb.
Its all shits and giggles until some body giggles and shits...
Clean and powder (friction reducing powder) the transfer belt cleaning unit side seals. They will make a dog whistle noise if they have toner build up on them. Also the exit unit above the fuser will make squeaking noises.
Thanks for the pointers turned out to be the fuser motor so oiled it up ran the tests all good.
New bulletin ...... this looks like fun...and when they refer to "the noise" I'm not quite sure what they are talking about.
