In the top of that "big box by the heater" is a temperature sensor.  It's
under a trapezoidal cover screwed to the box.  Take it out and figure out
some way to mount it in the area where it would have been anyway (I made an
L-shaped board I screwed to the firewall to mount it in), and reconnect the
wires to the connections on top of the cover.  The computer needs that
sensor to run the blower motor.  You also should cover up the opening where
the trap door into the cabin was to allow for recirculating air when the
A/C was operating.
