Your ride is haunted I believe 🤪🤪. Jk, time for electricity training. You have some wiring ****ery going on.
Sounds pretty entertaining.
The normal place to start on something like this is to "refresh" ( unscrew, clean to bare metal, tighten) ALL the grounds, including for sure the ones in/under the dash.
There are a lot of them, under trim, hiding under goo in the engine compartment.
Best bet is to get out your factory shop manual and look at the electrical section.
