Stepper Repair - which kit ?
Have 2 stepper motors with the "1- 2 second" click lasting 30 seconds or so on start up. Assuming the problem is the stepper actuators (arms).
Want to have all repair parts before disassembling the dash. There are 2 actuator repair kits. One has about ~10 parts and the other has 2 actuators. The kits seem to be mutually exclusive (unique) with respect to the repair parts.
Is there a way to ID the suspect Steppers to possibly avoid buying both kits. Hidden codes in the climate unit ? trouble shooting guide?
Has experience shown that certain actuators are more likely to crack than others.
Any guidance to expedite the repair appreciated.

i am very close filling the deal here. i got for a few $ a working stepper and found a mechanic willing to do it at the official benz service for 150Euro i guess him at my home would be like 80 euro or sth . lol
