Our heater does work, just no blower motor, so if we need heat, just open the vents and drive for airflow.
Our air conditioner unfortunately does not work, but we have manual windows that roll down by hand for airflow.
And today I just happened to install a fan on the dashboard.
Yes it’s a piece of shit truck, but ignoring the ‘luxury’ features that cost more than the truck itself to fix, it’s pretty darn reliable.
See my previous posts regarding Kermit the 96 Sonoma for reference. More reliable than new model Ford trucks that brick themselves because rainwater got into the taillight assembly…
Your blower motor probably does work, but the resistor assembly hooked up to the knob that controls its speed is most likely blown. This was the case with my truck when I got it and is rather common. Thirty four bucks will solve that problem for you, and it just plugs right in.
“Here” is an important word! I assume you are Canada based. I live where we rarely or ever get freezing temperatures, and only decently started having warm/hot summers. Why would defrosting or ac be mandatory in such climate?

That would not be street legal here. Must have a functional defroster if the vehicle has a windshield.

It never rains there?
We have wiper blades?
