I have a v230 and the cooling fan has stopped working..When I looked at it there appears to be nophing holding it to the fan motor which sounds like it is spinning but the fan wobbles in its shroud and appears to have broken away from its fixing nut..Can anyone tell me how to remove it and check it please?

Finally got the fan and shroud out and discovered the blades had separated from the centre nut,rather than replacing the whole thing I epoxied it back together and now works like a charm...
Thankyou
