Using a Multimeter to Test Electric Fan

My electric fan, which I have wired to a switch, seems to be running much more quietly as of recently. Before I order a replacement fan, I want to make sure that the fan is getting the right amount of "juice" to verify that there isn't an underlying electrical issue. How would I go about testing this with a multimeter? I'm assuming that I'd be looking for something close to 12V, but where do I put the probes?
