          Don't oil any sealed bearing device.




          1. it won't help &


          2. it could dribble into more important things.



          If cleaning does not free it up, discard it & buy a new one. They cost about $£€ 1.



          To clean properly, you need to remove the fan assembly from the heat sink [it should just pull off at the 4 lugs you can see on the join, it doesn't even need you to remove the heat sink from the CPU], then the fan from the motor axle - you can do that by simply pulling vertically ["down", in its current orientation] away from the motor, but sometimes there is so much resistance you will break it anyway, so it's not usually worth the effort.

          Try a good squirt of contact cleaner instead.

          • I'm not sure what politics has to do with it - you can buy one of these fans for next to nothing on eBay. Give or take a bit of fancy shaping to look 'cool' they're all the same, completely interchangeable. They're not fixable, they have sealed bearings. I've set out your options in the answer.
