So, someone was angry and actually kicked my dash (stupid I know) but where A/C buttons like max A/C, defrost button and right said of radio buttons they don't work. Like max A/C don't come on and my defrost won't work! Help me.

Hello,

It is possible that something just got simply unplugged.
The best option would be to remove those panels and switches and take a look inside.

Look for any loose harness or broken pieces.
Keep in mind that depending on the impact it can have internal damage to the control switches.

I have attached diagrams of how to remove the HVAC control panel below.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
