Have a 16" Chinese AC Electric Fan that has a blown motor due to lack of lub.

Did some quick checking and the motor blew before doing unrepairable damage to the bushings.

Have never had a blown Chinese AC Electric Motor before so would be interested in any tips finding the blown fusable link.

Did some forum searching but found nothing using AC electric motor fusable link but found nothing.

Thanks

You will find it hidden in the motor field windings. These are not
repairable. Similar to letting the magic smoke out and being unable to
get it back in the component.
