thermostat ground
trans-chassis ground

the ECU controls those things, the ECU gets its ground from the thermostat, the thermostat ground path runs to the battery through the trans-chassis ground.
also check your underhood fuses.

quick check for that, a jumper cable clamped to the ground terminal of the battery to the nub of the trans ground. If everything starts working you found the problem.
