1991 400 SE blower fan not working- please help!

Hi, can anyone please help with this one, please :-)
Mercedes '91 400SE, fan stopped working- checked fuses, all ok, purchased fan blower resistor regulator- when replaced fan works at full speed constantly even when ignition is off, and the only way to turn it off is to disconnect the battery. I'm totally confused now, I was hoping that replacing regulator will solve the problem, I've read that thermal paste should be used? is that true? What else should I try? any advice would be much appreciated.

You did not properly install the preresistor?

Find WIS doc AR8330P5370D and follow the lengthly instructions regarding resistance of coolant sensor---bla bla
