some days ago...my MB lost all heat inside the car...
i hear the dampers move....as i try to regulate.
the engine gets hot !

Should i start lookin in the controll of the heat...if some wire is broken ?
OR should i start look for dirt in the heatwaterpipe ?

Depends on the climate control system installed in your car.

The failure possibilities are larger if the climate control is the
automatic type - dial the temperature and the system does the rest. If
that type, the "amplifier" (logic board) or the "servo" (vacuum, fan and
heat controller) could be defective.

However, if your car has the simpler manual type I'd suggest checking
the heater control valve.
