Thank you... I really wanted to see this.

kafkaonwheels wrote:I checked out another spiral fan I have, unfortunately it has few ribs missing. It came from W460 280GE with A/C. Interesting thing is that fans have part code on them: BEHR 90.413.00.73.7, motor is same BOSCH BOSCH 0 130 111 006.
Currently seems like there is least one place, in amazon.co.uk, where they are in stock, with Hella code 8EW 009 160-121.

If to chase down analogue part codes, some Alfa-Romeo, Peugeot, Volvo full units start to pop up. I am fairly sure that those fans are used in countless Hella units and analogues, motor in others. Sadly there seems to be no public cross-reference library available.
For reference:
Fans are 132mm O.D; 60mm wide outside part; near shaft centre protrudes out 6mm, making whole fan 66mm wide; sits on 8mm shaft.
Motor is 73mm O.D; 8mm diameter shaft; 222mm long shaft; one shaft end extends 48mm out from motor, other looks same without taking it apart.
By looks and those measurements a W124 motor might suit, BOSCH 0 130 111 011 or 0 130 111 012.
But I have not tested it in practice.
Also for my previous long text, a small mishaps. Forgot that I had it actually figured out some time ago. On that original G Mercedes system the full throttle disconnect for compressor clutch has been likely realised way that A/C and automatic transmission kick down module is very same, just on electrical diagrams it is not obvious. Probably because not all vehicles had automatic or A/C. Even on relay module there is nice writing ‘D-Klima Kickdown’, A0015458005.

After digging into this earlier this morning I found this electric motor: https://www.ebay.com/i/303445593982?chn ... gJ9VfD_BwE The motor is two hours away from me but it just so happens that I will be there working tomorrow. I'm thinking about visiting the seller with my box to see if it fits. It is new old stock and the price is right. Then I can order two of fans that you found from amazon.co.uk: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Hella-8EW-009- ... B00BNYKUZM
I suppose there is a risk with the balancing but I'm willing to chance it to have a ~$120.00 set-up vs. the ~$600.00+ alternative... let me know what you think and thanks again!

Before you re-assemble - that double layer of mesh with the filter cloth between can be a source of rattles.
