This fix will restore your fan's original power and quiet operation. This fix does not require new parts, but does require a #1 Phillips head screwdriver, an 8mm wrench or socket, and a medium or low viscosity lubricant.

What are the chances the exact fan that I need to repair would be here? I'm about to put it back together… Let's see if it worked! 9/3/19, 10:45 pm.
OK. It's back together but the fan doesn't spin. I feel the motor doing… Something. It vibrates softly. So, now to figure out why it's not spinning.
