Default Dimmer, wipers, signals not working

So I was driving my truck at night and all of the sudden my dimmer switch quits working, the lights stay dim. I start playing around with it when I accidenty turn on the wipers, now I can't turn the wipers off and they're on high. When I made a turn I figured out that the turning signals don't work either. It seems that all the switches on that left **** are screwed up
There's no messages and no cel, the truck runs fine. Any ideas on why this happened. I'm taking it to the dealer ASAP.

Disconnect the negative terminal on the battery. Allow to sit a couple minutes and then hook it back up. This will reset the computer. If this does not correct the problem it could be many things and your dealer will need to look. Someone else here may have more ideas. good luck.

I guess it just needed reset because it works perfect now, Thanks. Unfortunately I still have to take to the dealer to get a new leather seat.
