Hopefully most are familiar with my house drama, as I am going to skip through to the point. Right about the same time the contractor and furnace guy did work on my house, a loud random snapping started.
I assumed it was something the contractor did as he messed with a wire over on the one wall of the house. But the people helping me, have looked at it and corrected any issues and found no real serious ones with the wiring work. So we have ruled that out, and the snapping continues.
The furnace guy had to drill down between the walls to get a wire through to the thermostat and I thought, maybe that was the culprit. I talked to an electrician and he said it was doubtful, as if it was a arch issue, it would have blown fuses and burnt out by now.
I am concerned what is causing this snapping sound, as it is very random and sudden. I will just be sitting here and SNAP. It always sounds like it's coming from the direction of that wall...however ONCE it sounded like it was coming from my computer and I later found a cracked charger I had hooked up to it that I had to toss. It was all most like too much power was delivered to it?
It *could* be it's not even a electrical issue, but no one is sure how to determine it without hearing it and it doesn't happen enough to be caught by anyone else.
Does anyone have any ideas of what it could be or suggestions? I am wondering when the fusebox is updated, if that would help any...but it's just so frustrating not being sure what is even causing it or even if it's electrical for sure.
