My blower motor fuse holder melted over time causing a burnt smell. Not sure if your model has the same holder. Coffin like fuseholder next to left shock tower on my 1989 w124.

Most of mine broke too. Got another filter housing from a slightly newer w124 at Pic and Pull a few years back. Still intact so far. Cost around $15 back then.

OVP

relay

OVP relay may be the culprit. Many posts about electrical gremlins when the fuse pops or the relay itself goes bad. Use the search feature to locate them.

My blower was stuck on high heat and would not turn off. Turned out to be a bad climate control unit. Found a couple of them at local Pic & Pulls for as low as $16.99.
