There is also an 8-pin connector with all 8 wires which goes to the heater/AC control module.
Does the fan for the heater work?

You might want to download the wiring diagram pdf for your year.

Follow the link in the 2nd post from the top in the forum to download your FSM's (Factory Service Manuals).

yea fan for the heater works, but a/c was taken out before I brought the car maybe that's why its not connected to anything.

there all LHD manuals, is the wiring the same as RHD just the other way around?

I downloaded the 1980 Wiring Diagram.
Scanned through the illustrations for 8-pin connectors.

The image has the three I found and the wiring code for identification.

Might help.
