Squeaky cabin ventilation fan........squeak!

[punjabi]

The cabin vent fan on my 300TE has developed an annoying squeak at the first setting, it is not continious but the squeak comes around at random! Perhaps needs a squirt of WD40? Where exactly is this fan and what is the best way to access this location?

The fan is under the jump wiper in the engine compartment. If you haven't removed one before you'll be amazed at the amount of dismantling needed to get at it

It probably needs new brushes and the bearings need greasing

Have a search of the Forum and I think you'll find a how-to that explains it all
