Default AC and Temp gauge stop working mysteriously???

This weekend i had some car trouble with all the new na-t stuff so i had my car towed home. The front bumper took some for the team while coming off the flatbed and since then, my AC will not turn on, the backlight lights up but none of the buttons do anything and nothing will come up on the display. The clock on the cluster works, but when i switch to see outside temp, the display goes blank...

Have any of you had experience with this or have any idea what the hell is going wrong? I'm so damn frusterated right now

The only work i did on the car was rewiring the mapecu and changing some of the silicone couplers. I checked all the fuses in the kickpanel and engine bay and replaced the black relay in the engine bay... nothing has worked so far and the AC and Temp were working right before the car died and had to be towed...

you check the temp sensor behind the front bumper? Make sure it is still plugged in and not damaged.

i found it hanging, but the wire connector seemed to be in good shape. I just zip tied it inside the front bumper in front of the crash bar. Is it necessary for it to be in a specific location?

Only thing I could think off would be the temp sensor since it DID take one for the team. is it broken?

i checked the temp sensor. It looks fine, I un plugged it and checkedthe connections, and it was ok. I forgot to mention the buttons to change the time arent working either, I cant zero it out or anything.
