No videos.
Spin by hand as bearings may be dry.
Fit a 12v night heater instead

That is the sound of your fan hitting the casing - sound like a healthy motor.

will have to try and move things to take a look, took me ages to fit the bloody thing.
That sounds to me like it is trying to seize.
They are a crap design, they run dry, then the oiltite bush seizes to the motor shaft, then the bush spins in the tin housing, and then its shagged!

I think there is meant to have a sponge ring round the heater to the inlet.
glad you update us with the problems.

...as in the collar was fouling the fan wheel - you can get your hand inside the plastic inlet through the wing once fitted to back of the collar. When I did mine iirc I put silicone on it and ended up covered in the blasted stuff. As @Hicap phill says, glad you resolved it, very satisfying.
