It blows hot like it's supposed to just wondering why the compressor is running.
Is this normal or is there a wire crossed somewhere?

Yes this is normal. The purpose is to dry the air for better defrosting. All cars will do this.

Awhile ago got a bunch of water inside and my rear defroster quit working. Switched around the relays using the horn relay, etc. still nothing. Flicking the switch does nothing, no light and no defrosting in the year. Any other components in missing? 98 classic too.
