instrument cluster not working

[mustang_tony]

2008 gt, instrument cluster stopped working. all the dash lights and gauges dont work along with the buttons on the side, (info, setup, reset, traction control, emergency lights) my ac is also blowing hot air i dont know if the problems are related or not. i checked the fuses and replaced the instrument cluster fuse cause it was blown out but nothing on the dash works, any help is much appreciated
