    AC Blower Fan bent and unattached from motor
    Hello,

    Central Heat & Air, Trane 5 years old. My inside unit started making like a rumbling sound, then froze up and "no air", so I took the cover off, and the fan is just all bent and completely unattached, just sitting there loose.

    Is there a way for me to fix this myself? I see a prong on the back side of the fan but I can't find where to attach it to? FYI, I don't mind trying although, it's kind of hard to get to with all the wires and the placement is extremely tight.

    I'm not a natural handyman, female here, but definitely willing to keep trying. If not, is this going to cost a lot of money to call a professional? Am I going to need a new blower fan? Any help I would be so grateful, thanks Brenda

    p.s. I guess my question is how would I reinstall the blower fan? How does it attach? I have a flashlight but I do not see any other loose parts or any visible attachment (except for a metal prong on the fan but that alone is not strong enough.) thanks again
