AC FAN rattled loud and is now off

Got in the car this morning, turned on the AC, the fan setting was set on high. I heard a rattling around the passenger side vents, it got louder and then stopped. Now no air is being pushed through the vents. How do I fix this? What degree of difficulty is this going to be?

Edit: Could it be the blower motor?

Sounds like either the blower motor wheel came off or the blower motor died.I have no idea how easy or hard this repair would be since i havent had to replace one yet.

+1 sounds like the blower motor. First I have heard of that going out.

i have done a few.

remove the lower black cover under the glove box
unplug connector
remove the 3 8mm or 10mm bolts (i can't remeber what size they are) and pull it out

takes about 2 minutes to do.
