A blower that works in start, but not run is likely an issue with the ignition switch itself. Squealing motor is one that needs replaced or lubricated. If it's been squealing for a while, you're better off replacing it. If it hasn't been making noise for long and the shaft isn't tight or excessively sloppy, you may be able to buy some time by oiling the bearings with oil made for electric motors (Zoom Spout or 3-in-1 in a blue bottle).
