190e Fan Switch Removal
 

Hello Everyone!

I'm having trouble removing the fan switch in my 89 190e. I have looked on the sides of the upright center console that it sits in for screws, but cannot find any. I assume one needs to remove this console to get to the fan switch? Has anyone done this before or have any ideas? Do I need to remove part of the dash or lower shifter console?

Thanks for any help,

I just replaced my switch last month. You grab the center vents with pliers (wrap the tips with a rag) and pull them straight out. You will see the (2) screws. You'll have to pull off the knob on the switch lever and the wood molding behind the knob. There are 2 clips that hold the temperature control in the dash. Lift each clip up with a pointed tool and remove the module. You have to remove it so the blower switch can come out that hole. I bought my new switch for $95.00 online. They are expensive.
Good luck.
