Safety Car
The only way to properly repair that is to obtain a parts car that is the same year and trim level, then transfer all wiring that got wet into your flood car.
If it got wet, it needs to be replaced, 100%.

Good luck - I have a feeling you are going to have your work cut out for you.

I considered buying a flooded car at one time. If you bought it right ($) it will be worth the effort. A fresh-water flooder is certainly better than saltwater. If you've got it down to HVAC & display you've done well. As was mentioned, replacing the wiring harness is probably in order, at least the interior harness that connects to the 2 systems you're having issues with.
