I bought a used 2012 f250 four wheel drive that had no dome, cargo, or map lights but everything else worked normal. After replacing bulbs, dimmer switch, and checking all fuses i took in to my ford dealership and they found that due to moisture in the cab, it burned out the body control module aka bcm.
