Default 1998 acccord ex sedan, Ac issues with the actuator

So this is weird, all my ac systems were working as of earlier, cold ac, all blower motors selections worked, defroster worked, and the hot/cold selector worked. Except the mode actuator for forwards or winshield etc. So i cleaned the actuator like many suggested and was about to put it back in but just plugged it in for A test run befire i screwed it into place. Thats when all hell broke loose. My entire ac control panel died as in no lights or response to anything, im talking all the leds, buttons and actuators. Even the blower motor stopped working which was odd since its not in the control panel itself, its a separate switch. Along with that it also took out my power mirrors, wtf.

After some trouble shooting i didnt find anything meaningful, no obvious fuses blown or anything in any of the 3 fuseboxes. I did manage to get the blower switch working but only if i removed the relay and shorted it.
The only thing i can correlate to the power mirrors and no blower is the igniton switch, but thats odd to have it break down this exact moment so im looking for seconds opinions before i tear down more crap.
Everything else in the car still works, windows sunroof lights etc, idk about cooling fans yet tho i have to check those later.
