Sounds like the motor bearing has failed. Buy a new fan.

It sounds like the motor bearing is dry / worn and making grinding sound, the only cure is replacement of extractor fan,

If you have checked for any obstruction to the fan blades, and they spin freely by hand when the power is off, then the fan itself must be worn as previous answers.
