PA Heat Seats, Fan, Sunroof, Rear Defroster, ect not working

Hey all,

So i was working on putting in a DEI 529T into my car for control of the sunroof from my remote and completely mind blanked. You are suppose to cut the wires for the motor and switch to hook to the 529T, in my absent mindedness i just stripped the wires back and attached the 529T wires. So needless to say i realized it and did it the right way....once it still didnt work i hooked it to a window (the 529T still works) so I just gave up and drove home from work after returning everything back to factory conditions. First of all when i turn my headlights on everything in the car (i.e. the numbers around the fan ****) still illuminate but heres the problems....

My sunroof/tilt doesnt work.
My heated seats (both) dont work.
My fan control **** and therefore my A/C button doesnt work.
My switch air flow direction doesnt work.
My rear/front defroster doesnt work.

I have an 04 GT with an aftermarket radio that has been in there for years now.

Heres what ive checked:

I still have 12V constant at the sunroof motor but have 0.5V when i push the buttons to do somtn (i.e. the up wire should read 12V when slide button is pushed but it reads 0.5V) This got me lost a bit.

I checked all the fuses inside and out.

I also checked some of individual relays in the engine bay which work. (Using the seat warm relay that i thought was broken in the horn spot the horn worked off of what i thought should have been a broken seat relay).

So I am stumped and have no idea. Called a few mechanics of mine...no ideas. Car runs fine the whole 4 mile drive home and yeah. Im really looking for anything bout now b/c i have work tommorrow and i obviously need my car but I dont want it to be unsafe. And yes with the exception listed above, everything else electrical works in my car. Please help b/c my searches havent hit my exact problem and my mechanics are stumped too.

Just and added note: When i try to turn the fan **** or push the seat warmers on there is still no click from the relays for that specific stuff.
