This is a 124 chassis model.The blower motor is under the cowling just in front of the windshield.You will need to remove the plastic pieces in front of the windshield and the wiper transmission.It will have squirrel cage fans at each end.If you are not experienced with removing these fans,use extreme care,because plastic gets brittle with heat and age.You can use a hairdryer to warm to plastic hub for easier removal.When tapping the motor shaft free of the cage,keep it evenly supported.Make sure not to drive the cages onto the new motor shaft too far.They will contact the housing.Replace broken fans-they vibrate badly.Blower motors with new fans installed are readily available for extra bucks.
Under the hood in back right corner-open fuse box and I believe it is #7 But you have 2 other fan fuses. Directly in front of the fuse box is a small black plastic box that has a fuse as well. My Mercedes has had the same problems. I recently had the ac fan blower motor changed and I now have a working panel of buttons. The 1987 300e also has reports of the control heads in the temp control buttons having to be replaced. so far- I have had my temp sensor,fan blower motor changed and no problems.
The blower is accessed from the engine firewall, not from the inside. To access this, the windshield wiper motor has to be removed, then you will see the access to the Blower.
under the hood between fire wall and engine underneath the wiper motor. If its not working replace the strip fuse by the driver side strut mount first. Its in a tootsie roll sized plastic case.
