The fan motor can be fixed by an electric motor repair shop if you can't
find a replacement.

The dash may only need to be loosened enough to pull it away slightly. I
would try to leave the dash wiring alone. It may seem scary the first
time but it is not so bad.

Looking at Haynes and the Bentley, removal will be no fun at all! What really worries me is I my not be able to get a new fan anyway.
