The last time it quit it was -10F out, rode 45 miles to work and 45 miles home with no heat. The next day the rotten bugger worked fine. 3 screws to replace IIRC. -Curt Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2008 16:04:04 -0500 From: "Wilton Strickland" <wilt...@nc.rr.com> Subject: Re: [MBZ] W123 blower cutting in and out To: "Mercedes Discussion List" <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Message-ID: <000d01c9608a$fecbeb20$0301a...@computer> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" 'Had the same prob on my '80 240D 'bout 22 years ago; replaced blower; DIY job above front pass feet behind glove box.
