Thank you Arthur, with your help, I was able to figure out that the relay with the blue painted top, which sits in front of the fusebox, was bad. Guess having a stuck aux fan caused the fuse inside it to melt. Interestingly, the plastic of the fusebox by the number 3 is a little glassy, as if the plastic got a little hot, wondering if it took that much power to fry the relay.
Well anyway, for now, I just cut pin 87A off of an "ice cube" relay, using that, the fan works. I kinda figure that the blue painted top relay is a little beefier to handle the current of the fan in high speed. On a side note, the aux fan relay listed here at mercedesshop isn't the correct one for my car,,, according to the picture. The blue top relay that my car has, does not have a pin at 87A AND there is no space for a pin to go into on the relay holder.
