The m/n is CDT00P the s/n is 703200075 the IND CODE IS 95313490000 The fan is situated just below the heating element and i am just wondering if it should be fixed to the motor spindle or does it spin freely

[electrofix]

yes fans should be fixed to both ends of the motor shaft

if its the rear plastic fan have had a few of them go
