on the 92 190E 2.6, the blower fan for the heater is making a lot of screeching noises while operating. the sound sometimes goes away when the fan is moved to full speed but comes back at lower speeds.
question : how difficult is it to replace the motor ? does the dash have to come off ?
thanks guys.

Not sure about the 2.6, but on my 2.3 It only took me about 20 minutes. I had to remove the leaf guard, then the wiper assembly. Then loosen the blower motor cover by pushing the metal tabs in. The cover then lifts off. Then unplug the motor and there is a metal tab holding the motor in which must be released. Then it just lifts out.

When i pulled mine out, clearly it was bad as the wheel was very loose. I think the bushings just wear out and the wheel starts wobbeling when it turns. I found one at a junk yard that didnt wobble so i put that in for $15, and works fine now, for about 8 months.

awesome !
thanks for the reply. It's good to know that the whole dash doesnt have to come out for the replacement. I'll look for the prices on the new one and wait for the weather to get a little better before I start this project
thanks.
