1982 300SD wipers problem-

I have a 1982 300Sd that I am repairing for my kids to drive. I can hear the wiper motor running but the arms do not move? I know I have read somewhere about a Bakelite piece or something that wears out and it controls the arm movement. IS there a simple modification repair that can be done...AND how do I get to it, and how do I make the repairs.

1984 300D turbo cabin heat inconsistent

Hi all and thanks to Mercedessource for all the help getting "Old Yella" back to nearly original shape. My question concerns the heat in my old girl. I replaced the monovalve some time ago and it had the typical tear in the rubber portion of the valve. The replacement gave me heat, though intermitently. Now the heat will roast you but if I am on the road a while it will subside and eventually I will feel cool air coming out of the vents. Then the heat will come back and the cycle starts over again. Roast then cool.

Blower Motor 1985 300SD Turbo Diesel

n/a
Can anyone out there direct me to the location of any relays or inline fuses that might be the cause of my blower motor not working. I know the blower motor works having run 12 volts directly to it. Additionally, I have no power when checking the motor leads with a volt meter when everything is hooked up. I originally thought the problem was in the block or coil resister beneath the master cylinder/vacuum booster. Changed out both resisters and still no power to the motor. The fuse looks good (number 11, I think in the fuse box compartment.)

1974 240D 115 - Door weather-stripping

I have purchased new weather-stripping from my Mercedes dealer for my 1974 240D 115. I removed the old weather-stripping on the front passenger door and tried to install. After carefully pushing the new weather-stripping in the door channels. The weather-stripping didn’t quite fit. About 3” to long. Is there any way to “shrink” the weather-stripping before the install? Or should I just return and order another. Any tips would be helpful.

Thanks,
Eric
