a/c melts fuse only on auto/high speed fan
1st-My 1992 300d melted the 30a fuse.Driving along and just went out.The a/c was on and the fan setting was set to Auto.I wired in a 30a auto reset breaker and the system performs fine on low speed without tripping the breaker.However, if I set the fan to auto/high it will trip within 3 minutes.
2nd The a/c still cools well set at 65 but will not cool if control temp is set above 68-70 Has anyone had either of these problems. Any help is appreciated. Thanks Gregg |
Check the amp's draw. On high, you'll find that draw is very close to fuse rating.
Bearing begining to sieze and/or brushes worn. Sounds like new blower fan needed. |
Check the current to the compressor clutch. I have seen these things do a partial short and draw a lot of current. I think the normal current draw is between 3-4 amps.

If it's easy to get to the blower motor, check if there's axial play in the main shaft. The bearings could be worn causing undue load.
Sixto ... stay tuned |
