164 Heater Fan 140-160

I think my heater fan is going out. When I turn on the fan, it's reluctant to start, and if left on, the fuse blows. It kind of sounds like a loose connection, but I thought the bearings in the fan are going out, which could be putting a strain on the motor, which draws more current, then bam, the fuse blows. Anyone have experience with this? If so, how bad is it to get to the fan? Do I have to rip out the whole dash? A shop I spoke with says it would take them 5.2 hours. I don't want to pay that labor, but it seems I'm going to have to drive this car, and winter's coming, so I guess I'll have to fix it myself. The manuel I bought doesn't cover this, so any help anyone could give would be great.

thanks,
PaEd
