Why does the radiator fan run all the time?
The radiator fan may run up to five minutes and sometimes longer. Unless there is an electrical issue, it may stay on all the time until it drains the battery. When the engine is running, the coolant circulates from the engine and flows to the radiator, where heat is dissipated.
Why do I hear a noise when I start my Mercedes?

Why does my blower motor only work at slow speed?
Blower motor only working on low speed. Another common symptom of a faulty blower motor resistor is that the blower motor only works at slow-speed. This can be caused because of bad wiring between the blower motor resistor and the blower motor itself.
What are the symptoms of a bad cooling fan relay?
1. Engine running hot One of the first symptoms commonly associated with a bad or failing cooling fan relay is an engine that runs hot or overheats. If you notice that your engine is running at higher temperatures than normal, that may be a sign that the relay is not functioning properly.
Where is the regulator on a Mercedes fan blower?
The Mercedes Benz fan blower motor regulator is a series of resisters in a printed circuit board about 2-inches square located right next to the blower motor.
Why is my Mercedes radiator fan running on high speed?
Please try again later. This is a very common problem with the Mercedes radiator cooling fan running constantly on high speed. The problem in most cases is a bad ecm so in order to fix it the ecm will have to be replaced and programmed to work with your vehicle. Check the mass airflow sensor first.
Just to the left of the blower motor, an electrical connector connected to a flat 1-inch-by-2-inch plate can be seen. This is the blower motor resister, which controls the fan speeds. Disconnect the multi-wire connector from the blower motor resister next to the blower motor. Start the car and turn the air conditioning on.
What happens when the blower motor does not come on?
As a note, 85 percent of the time when the blower motor does not come on or operates at one speed only, the blower motor resister is at fault. The resister emits substantial heat from the resistance it supplies and eventually burns up. The resister is inexpensive as parts go and is simple to replace.

What causes a blower motor to stop working?
In a situation where the motor doesn’t work on any speed, the most likely causes are: a blown power supply fuse, a bad motor ground connection, bad motor speed control module or a failed motor. On all systems, a failed blower motor is least likely. Blower motors generally don’t fail out of the clear blue.
How does a half speed blower motor work?
So a half speed driver request will result in the blower motor controller pulsing the ground connection off twice as often as when the fan is running at full speed. Carmakers use these three common wiring methods to supply power and ground to the blower motor in a manual system using a blower motor resistor.
Why does my blower motor make a squealing noise?
The squealing noise happens most often in the winter during cold startups and may disappear as the motor heats up. If you ignore the noise, the bearing will continue to wear to the point where the motor won’t start at all. The reason I’m not including the motor resistor as a suspect is because it usually only controls the lower speeds.
