87 300E A/C fan not working???
 

I have an 87 300E, the fan will try to start and will blow for 1-2 seconds then shut off. I have checked the fuse panel, all fuses look good but I changed the blower fuse anyway. It's getting hot here in Virginia. Any suggestions on where to start looking for the problem?? Thanks, Steve

There is a strip fuse in a small black plastic box just in front of the main fuse box. Notorious for developing a hairline crack. Could look good, but be bad. Available at dealer cheap. You could bridge the fuse with a wire as a test only.

Check for corrosion where the 3-pin fan plug attaches at the firewall.

Softconsult, You were correct, fixed it this afternoon in about 10 minutes. Wonder what the dealership would have charged to diagonse and repair? You guys are awesome!! Thanks
