Default new 72 with questions

Hey Everyone,
I have a couple of questions on my new 72. The windshield wiper door pops up but the wipers never come on. The fuse is Good. any Ideas ?
Also my High speed on the air conditioning does not work. The other speeds work. Where would the fusable link be, and how to fix ? Also I want to lower my front end 1 inch. What type of springs can I get. I put some on my old 80 and it lowered about 1 inch and handeled great. does anyone have any recommendations. Thanks

For the wipers, there are a lot of possibilities, The switch under the steering wheel could be in the hold position, the vacumn operated switch under the wiper door at the base of the passenger wiper arm could be bad or misajusted, it does not allow the wipers to work until the door is open. Do a search thru the archives, there are many past threads.

For the heater blower, could be relay. also lot of past threads.

Springs, I don't know

For wipers see this one
