2012 xlt control panel, audio, blower, key fob failure

So I have a 2012 xlt 5.0l single cab. Standard heat/ac with the non-navigation sync system. The blower and heat dosent work. The radio doesn't work on fm or Bluetooth. For the most part the screek doesn't say anything but if I hit the power button on the stereo the time pops up for a second. The key fob also doesn't work. When I click on the font the center console will light up but nothing will happen. The key doesn't work in the door but I'm not sure if it ever did. Intermittently it all comes back on and works just fine but cuts out again. A few times hitting the dash has made it all come back on. When it all isn't working and I press the eject button on the stereo the deck tries to spit something out and it says eject on the screen so I know the screen and the cd part of the stereo are getting power all the time. The Bluetooth doesn't work and the USB port doesn't work or charge my phone. The lights on the center console are all working but it doesn't dim when I dim the dash. I am baffled on what it could be and the harness is impossible to follow. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Hey Naland,

I'm happy to help with the Bluetooth issue. Have you checked for any software updates: https://owner.ford.com/tools/account...p-to-date.html

But it's also a problem with the blower, radio and the key fob/remote start. they all shut off at the same time and come back on at the same time. I'm sure it isn't up to date but would that have something to do with all those problems?
