 If the fan blades do not spin properly then replace the fan

I think this is your cooling assembly

It appears to be a standard 4 pin CPU type fan.  I recommend you remove the fan and get the part number, and search for the fan

 

Alternately, get one the same size and with 4 pins and one that has the same voltage and current rating.
