I found this bit of info here

Buying a Used Sprinter Van - Top Ten Problems to Look Out For - Sprinter RV

So you found a beautiful used Sprinter van you want, and you ask – what should I look out for? First off, get a proper inspection from a qualified mechanic, preferably one very familiar with Sprinter vans – the Mercedes Sprinter van is a complex beast! Have your mechanic use a full-featured...

"Heater fan – If the heater fan only works on high speed, the heater resistor has probably failed. The heater resistor is about $40, and you can easily replace this yourself."

I have replaced the heater Van on the engine and it is working but only on high so I guess I may have a problem with the heater resistor so looking further I think I am now needing one of these

That's not a bad price there.
You used to be able to get the right part to repair this from Maplins but now they are on-line only, all their weird componentry items have disappeared

Yes - I got one at £7.50, worth a punt
Think there are still a couple of Maplins open, but maybe I am wrong there ?
EBay have pretty much taken over as suppliers of components in the electrical and electronics markets plus Banggood and Wish have had an impact too. Would like to make one of Big Clive's LED displays for the Van one day
