I have a question for you guys, can you tell if a blower on my 300E is locked up? Is there a way you can tell without taking all that stuff apart? Can I get my hand in there somewhere and spin the cage, see if it turns freely?

There is a wiki DIY for the blower.
Have a look at it and decide for yourself.

I know, is there a way to tell if the blower is bad without taking all that apart? The fuse just melted apart, my guess is that it is bad. Yhanks
