Thanks to this board, I fixed it myself!

I can't thank all of you enough for giving me the courage to open up part of my 420 SEL and replace the blower motor. Having never worked on a MB before I was always leary about trying to take apart something that orginally cost $40,000+. The bearings were bad and the brushes were almost gone too.

I replaced the blower motor and reinstalled the old cage blower wheel on the new motor and completed the job in about 90 minutes. To my surprise everything works great. I love Mercedes!

I could not have done it without everyone heres help.

Many Thanks

Good job! Now you know the motor is fixed right and it didn't cost you a small fortune. :D :cool:

You will discover that you will dare to do more at-home repairs as your post count rises! :D

When you get to around 1000 posts...look out tranny overhaul!!! :p
