THERES A FUCKING TAB!?!?

Uhhh …. Where?

@@thecrew8612on the side of the blower motor, other videos show it way better

Ya i wish I knew about the clip lol took much longer than expected

@@calebadair6016 it does sound like that’s the issue. When my blower motor went out is was winter, I could faintly feel heat coming through the front window defroster and I could smell the heat but just wasn’t getting airflow from the vents. If it was making noise while running before it stopped working that’s an indicator of the motor being the problem. Also if you remove the cabin air filter cover which I show in the video you can try to give the motor a spin while it’s on. If the bearings are corroded then they won’t be able to spin off the initial power on cycle and you may be able to help them by spinning the motor from the cabin air filter box. This would help confirm it’s the motor, but if it doesn’t start it still seems to be the issue. I’d suggest getting a new one and plugging it in to check, then if it is just finish the installation. I’m sure you can check voltage and other electrical things when trying to troubleshoot but the easy way is to plug in a new one.

I ordered mine from FCP euro. It only took a few days to get and they have a good warranty on all parts they sell. There are cheaper ones on Amazon, I tried that a few years ago but only got 2 years out of it. You won’t get a code from the dash. Mine was still heating up, I could feel the heat once the car warmed up coming from the defroster at the windshield. Then when at highway speed the heat would come out a bit more just from the air being forced into the car. I got this one: www.fcpeuro.com/products/mercedes-blower-motor-assembly-febi-2048200208 It was 100 bucks, they also have the OEM but 365 dollars. I think the code they refer to is not an error code but a model or vin code. FCP might be able to help if you call or email them. I can’t find the 800, 808 or 809 code anywhere on my car but it fit and works fine. It might be a bit louder but it’s hard to tell.

Just found this on the codes. They are option codes and if you call a dealer and provide the vin they can give you the option code. www.justanswer.com/mercedes/a68zw-need-replace-blower-fan-parts-list-says-not.html

@@petespit9169 thank you men.. yeah I'm gonna get the same like you *febi* I really need that is Winter time in Pennsylvania, tanks again

There is a cabin air filter but it shouldn’t cause the blower not to work. There is probably a fuse for the blower, I’m not certain where it is. FCP euro has some options for the blower, just check the website. I bought the cheap one from them, they have a good warranty.

There is a good tab that is just about opposite the duct port. A few people said they had to pull it down to get the motor off. Wondering if that is causing the issue.

Check out this post. Could be a vacuum pod issue. www.benzworld.org/threads/air-conditioning-whistle.3016496/

I never had that issue when mine failed. It could be that the bearing is failing, which could cause a rattle as there would be more play in the shaft the plastic cage is mounted to. A whistle noise could be a vacuum issue. You could remove the blower and then plug it in and run it to see if the noise is definitely coming from the blower. Vacuum actuators seem to be the cause of the whistle noise on most forums.

Here is a post on the whistle noise with some troubleshooting. www.benzworld.org/threads/air-conditioning-whistle.3016496/

Someone commented that the tab needs to be pulled down, you said you tried pulling the tab up. Maybe you tried both…
