While you are welcome to our family here, and we are happy to help - you are making some mistakes right off the bat.

Just what does that word salad mean? If you are going to ask for help with something as technically complex as one of today's cars, you must be specific, form real sentences and paint a good picture of what the car is doing.

We are not standing next to your car, all we have to go on is what you type. You are going to get nothing but guesses.

Have no brake lights, only one right low beam headlights, no brights, no power to blowev fan/AC, no power to pretty much the entire row of switches there(spoiler, etc) No fog lights.
No power to those switches? You cannot say that, what you can say is that those switches (some of them, you don't say which ones) do not work. Those switches do not "have power", they pull inputs to the BCM either to ground or to battery to form inputs to the BCM which then performs the function you are expecting, or passes the request over the CAN BUS to the CLP/SSM.

Taken together, all of this sounds like rodent or water damage. I'd yank the cover off the big box next to the battery and see what the condition of the three main modules is (ECU/RCM/BCM). I'd then take the covers (both outer and inner) off the underhood fuse box on the driver's side (in the USA and Canada) and see if you find evidence of rodent visitation in there. You are looking for rodent damage or water intrusion.

Take a few minutes and read this:
