1993 ford problems

I have a 1993 f150 I bought that was in really good shape. Trouble is it was stolen and used to run drugs from the border. I got the truck back and now I am having all kinds of electrical problems.

The fuse box seems to have a problem I lost the hot on two fuses the turn signal and heater, Got the turn signals fixed now I have a short when I turn the heater on. I cannot find a wiring diagram for this truck. The fan will blow for a while before if blows the fuse. But there is no air coming out of the vents. Thought the fan was pulling too much power so I changed it and the resistor. While I had the fan out I checked the door to make sure is was opening and closing. But still no air.

I'm thinking it is stopped up somewhere but I cannot find any fresh air or inside inlets to check them.

Anyone know where they are located and how I can make sure the passage way is not stopped up/

Thanks.

Sounds like rodents at play.

1. There are bricks of marijuana/cocaine stuffed into the vents (seriously)

2. Vacuum issue behind the climate control panel. When no air is coming from the vents, does it kick to defrost? If it kicks to defrost, it's the vacuum issue.

I can see nothing in the vents or in the fan housing. I have blocked the door at the fan open and have held the door under the dash (at least it feels as if the door is open.

I cannot find the inlet for the recirculation. I think the outside air comes in under the windshield wiper housing.
