If the led is lighting up and the fan no longer spins it's most likely dead. Try using your finger to give the fan blades a slight spin, do the fan blades spin real easy and freely? Or does it feel like there's resistance and the fan barely spins? It should spin several times easily using your finger, if it doesn't or if it only makes one revolution and stops short then the bearing probably went bad and will need replaced.
