Where might one find a replacement motor for a older box fan

Chris Cook - Réponse

Also, I would like to know where to get a replacement motor, as shown in step 4.

Great guide! Upon reassembling, I noticed that the center of the propeller touches the front grill where it says Holmes. Anyone know if they rub on each other by design?

My version of the fan came with a similar cord, however the female end had a bump in the center on the end that latches into the fan. Without shaving that piece off, the plug doesn’t detach without taking it apart and prying it out.
