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

Did some quick checking and the motor blew before doing unrepairable

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.

get it back in the component.
