Thanks
Your car is a W201 chassis vehicle with a diesel engine - either the OM602.612 (rare 2.5 turbo) or the OM602.911 (naturally aspirated 2.5L). When you go to work on the vehicle and find threads or DIY articles on the job, choosing search terms that include W201 or OM602 will really help you find what you're looking for.


This thread will get you started on the blower motor: http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/showthread.php?t=242345

When you turn on the defrost, it will run the blower on high, with full heat. The air is also directed at the windshield.
