Heater blower on a 114/115 is a nightmare.  AC blower on
same is easy.  Shared blower on 123 is easy.

Re: [MBZ] 123 Blower motor ?'s - oops

2008-06-08 Thread OK Don
It's the 115 that's a bear to do (did it twice), the 115 ran from '68
to '76. The 123 started in '77 - should be LOTs easier to change,
though I've never had to do it. The 107 - '72 to '89 - were EASY to
change! (did it once).

I was thinking that both the W115 (entire car built around the heater blower)
and the W123 (serviceable) were both available in the 1976 model year.
If it's got 7" headlishts outboard of 5 3/4" fog lights, it shouldn't be
that bad.

Sorry - meant to say the 75's were terrible to replace - I had to do that
one once, and was told the '76's were easy at the time.

I know the '76's were terrible to replace, but I thought the '76's were easy
- or was that just the AC blower?

I don't think a W123 is abnormally difficult. Just remember, if it's a
1976 it might be a W115, and those are incredibly time consuming to replace.
