Disabling Auto Heat

My 81 SC auto heat has never worked in the 9 months I've owned the car. It went in and had the motor removed for a rebuild and while I have had the car I began testing with all the threads on the subject. So, both of my temperature sensors have issues, the cabin one has a break in the wire(somewhere?) to it and it goes off after re-installing it and bending or pushing the wire. The one at the heater box is dead.

I have read that the selector switch on top of the auto heat box will still control the engine fan without these sensors but would like to confirm this with others. I tested the selector switch and it is working. If this is the case I will just run with the manual lever disconnected from the auto heat motor and the engine blower with the selector switch.

Last question, do I plug in the dead temp sensors for this plan or not? Thanks for any thoughts!
