Before replacing, you might try cleaning it. Both of my '94 sensor fans were making noise but are now quiet after cleaning. I suspect they had hair or other small debris in them. Remove the assist handle and the cover over the fan. Clean with an alcohol-soaked "q" tip and then suck everything out with a vacuum cleaner hose. On my car, this fixed the right one, but the left one required removal for cleaning. (I also squirted WD-40 into the motor, then cleaned the residue off the fan with alcohol.) The assembly removes and disassembles pretty easily. The process took about an hour for both sides.
Note: The assist handle attach screws are covered by small plastic pieces that hinge at the bottom. Pry from the top to open them.
