Heater Issues, Lid closing issues and a "What is this"

I have a 1985 3.2 911.

It has manual heat controls (two levers and a three position heater dial).

It also has an upgraded A/C compressor.

Problem I:
I recently purchased the car. The heat does not work, but the shop did test the rear-blower (one above the engine) it works when 12v are directly applied.

If I sit in the car, put the ignition to the "on" position, pull the red-levers up and set the switch to 1-3 I hear a "buzz" in the rear, but the motor does not appear to be blowing. Nothing is coming into the front cabin.

I replaced all the fuses in the engine compartment.

The levers feel "taught", but they do seem to catch a bit at certain points.

After reading a lot, my understanding is the problem could be the dial switch in between the seats or the foot well-blowers? My understanding is these are all wired in a series and if anyone one goes out, nothing works, hence why I get no air movement in the cabin?


Problem II.

The truck lid is difficult to close. Right now it's up in my garage and I can't get it to lock down. I'm thinking it's interference with the A/C line. The line first catches on the oil-check and then hits the Air-Box. It also maybe pinching on the hinge.

Is this normal, or should it be rerouted somehow? Could by problem be an adjustment with the actual engine-lid latch?







Problem III:

While hunting down the source of the God-Awful door buzzer, I came across this black electric box. It's not buttoned down to anything, just sitting in there and kinda flippy-floppy. The wires obviously go somewhere. Is this aftermarket? Is it factory? What is it?
