Cyberlight SV lamp, fan issue

Hi! I have a Cyberlight SV that lamp is striking about 10 minutes after turning on the fixture. I'm assuming it's overheat and the fan is not working because I couldn't feel the air. I'm trying to open it seeing if it's fan. But the diagram I found on the website doesn't match my fixture.
Can some awesome people help me ..
1. if the lamp keeps striking what the reason would be?
2. if it's the fan issue, where can I find the fan in side the fixture?

thank you very much!!

    Read my post #4 above - until you verify that the fan is getting correct power, replacing the fan, in my opinion, is a complete waste of time. That, and the power control transistor driving the fan will hit you about $5, and the fan a couple of hundred . . . which one would you rather be wrong on? To me, the fan is a last resort . . . but be sure that it spins freely. If it is tight (dry bearings, or similar) it could be slow and the quit when it heats up. If so, you can try adding some lube, but likely the bearings are gone and you can't save it . . .
