Just thought I'd save someone else the aggravation if you are cheap like me and buy stuff off Ebay
Bought a new blower and resistor this year, cheapest I could find on Ebay...chinese 10$ resistors do work, but the casing is not for the NA sprinters it seems so you have to glue it in with some sort of goop
As for the blower...after spending 9 hours testing circuits, relays, and the ATC unit, with everything seeming fine but no blower (blower worked when jumped) I had this revelation
Blower plug
My modification
THE DANG TERMINALS ON THE MOTOR WEREN'T LONG ENOUGH!!!
I just stuffed a couple of the crimp terminals in to extend it and lo and behold, a working blower with all speeds.
Thought I'd save somebody else the aggravation, I was mystified. The plug was fully seated but not making contact. Obviously these motors are floating around on Ebay, I got one
