2013 ML350 W166 Blower Motor in cabin blower motor fuse #13 is missing
Can someone with a 2013 ML350 (W166) check their cabin fuse box next to glove box for fuse location #13 at tell me if there is a fuse in that socket and if so what amp?

Bro, unless you just bought the truck and never knew if the blower ran before, your problem is elsewhere. The fuse goblin doesn't steal fuses while driving, only in the middle of night under cover of darkness *wink*
My gf's on the way home. As soon as she pulls into the garage, I'll check and let you know. But I sincerely doubt that's your problem....

Cabin fuse box next to glove box. Open front passenger door, open glove box, fuse box is plastic panel on right side of open glove box sized about 8"x12" triangular shaped. Pulls open from rear edge (rear meaning toward back of car) while pulling out towards open door.
BUT never mind...
Checked with MB service and they said they did know if a fuse should be there or not. They recommended trying a 15 amp fuse and see what happens. I did not follow that flawed advice.
The blow motor started on its own after not working for 3 days left in the off position. I may have a water intrusion into motor circuit board issue OR a wire short - less likely OR blower motor resistor OR relay OR a ghost.

If you are still having problems with this I had an inop blower and found where the harness had rubbed through on the back of the glove box. It was a felt covered piece so it did not short but dropped the voltage to the resistor down to about 4v and it wouldn't work. It was the main 12v from the battery box to the resistor module.
