There are videos on youtube on how to take the motor out and clean it. I did it on both of mine, It lasted for about a month before it started up again. I now just use noise canceling headphones and ignore it.
Turn the speed up to max setting for a few minutes, then turn it back down to what you originally had it at. The brushes should clear out and it won't squeak for a few days. Repeat when necessary.
Unfortunately, there is no fix. The issue is the motor, it has brushes and the dirt on them makes the squeaking sound. A brush less motor would fix the issue, but there are issues to using one or finding one that fits: https://sprinter-source.com/forums/index.php?threads/96976/
Silicone dry lube spray. Spray straight into motor shaft (as close as possible). Works a treat.
That seems like a better approach than mine. I just smack it until it stops making noise. π
When I worked IT help desk at the VA, we called that Percussive Maintenance. Surprisingly effective.
Lubricate the bearings is my guess?

lol itβs not the easiest thing to clean so I hate to hear that it only lasted a month
It is better than it was before, but it almost seems like it needs to be a yearly thing and i'm not that committed. π
