Depends on what's squeaking.  It could be (if a relatively new motor is installed)
the fan "cage" but that's more like a whine and a little lubricant will cure it.

If it's old, then I agree with that it's the motor but I don't recommend 
using WD40.  I used it on my old blower until the cabin developed that burning 
electrical smell one day - blower motor siezed - and had I not quickly killed power 
to the CC I can only surmise what would have happened next.

Bite the bullet and R&R the blower.
