Hello😊 please can you tell me how you cleaned everything up to make it work again, as I've managed to remove it all from the car but have no idea how you cleaned it and what with. I'm just a trying to fix it like you have, your instructions were brilliant at getting it out, now I just want to clean it up and do a bodge as you call it like you have. 😊

Hi! I just wiped the worst off, then used lots of WD40 and clean cloths to clean the rest up as much as I could, also spraying the moving parts. I hope that helps

BEST VIDEO EVER to remove blower fan assembly (and I have a 350, same parts)! You even show how to get the stinking connectors apart, which when you're contorted into position under the dash seems impossible. Suggestions to others who remove the housing: 1- Have a pan under the motor; I had about two cups of water in the housing when it dropped which is now under the carpet; and 2- I drilled two 1/8 inch holes in the housing, one under the fan motor itself and one under the control unit, as "weep" holes so that (hopefully) the water will never accumulate in the housing again. I'd rather sacrifice the carpet than the motor.

Thank you so much for your comments on my video, it means a lot. The reason I made it was because there just wasn't anything to help on youtube when we had this problem so I hope it has helped other people. I couldn't believe how rusty the motor was when I took it apart and what a bad design it is. Your suggestion of drilling a couple of holes to stop water accumulating sounds good to me. Cheers, all the best

Thanks for this video, I will give it a go, I have a 2005 SLK350, I presume the assembly should be the same. The blower stopped working. Hope I can fix it and save a few hundred dollars. Had a couple of instances where the drain got clogged in a storm and water got into the car via the air/ac vents. fingers crossed.

I have exactly the same problem. Every couple of months or so, I remove the leaves from the fan by gaining access via the battery compartment. This time, the fan has stopped working so I will go through the same steps as you. I've changed the pollen filter several times so don't expect there to be any unusual problems unless the fan motor is shot. The design of this system is a disgrace. I hope Mercedes read this and respond, they should re-design it and have a recall. However, we all know that they won't do that. They would rather charge an arm and a leg to repair it. Excellent video! Have you considered fitting a screen between the battery compartment and the fan to reduce the amount of leaves getting to the fan? A drain from the fan and pollen filter might help, but the real solution is to stop the leaves and water getting into the system. I haven't started my rant about rattles and leaks, but that's another subject.
@pip17147 жыл бұрын
Hi, thanks for your comments. Yes I agree, the design is really poor. Fortunately getting the fan out yourself and looking at it shouldn't be beyond most people- that's why I made the video to start with, as there wasn't anything on KZbin- and I didn't want to pay Mercedes hundreds of pounds for something I could do myself :-) Thanks also for your later comment too- which seems to be blocked, and I can't figure out why KZbin has done it or how to unblock it- but am working on it!

Thank you for this video! My blower just up and quit the other day after working fine. Found this and it sure made the job of removing it easy. Mine was clean in there, no obvious problems, blower spins easily and worked fine when connected to a battery directly. Reading the Regulator / Resistor is a common problem. Hoping so just ordered an OEM Behr to replace it. Not sure what I will do if this does not get it working again?
@pip17147 жыл бұрын
Hi Brad, thanks for your comment. Sorry not replied earlier as I don't always seem to get notified when someones left a comment. I read that the regulator can definitely be an issue too and this does sound like the cause of the problem. Hope that you got it fixed :-)

Hi Gary. I've moved from Trumpington since then, so much has changed, we used to live in the road what was next to the old Esso petrol station. Considering it's age the RT is still a good bike and handles and feels a lot lighter than you think. And I reckon older BM's just seem more solid and better put together than later versions, and I still think it looks pretty good too.
