Default Weird noise from A/C and gauges off

wsup everyone

I was driving to my friend's house on local street yesterday afternoon with A/C on (not on full blast...about half way turned up). I came to a stop @ a red light and all of a sudden, numbers on my gauges ('03 Track model), and radio went off and low-tire pressure light came on for about 30 seconds. Car didn't die (engine was still running) and I had no problem engaging in 1st gear. It seems like some kind of connection problem.

I turned A/C off and waited for about 10-15 seconds...everything came back on again as if nothing happened. I got to my friend's house down the street and same thing happened again for about 10 seconds. Again, car didn't die.

Also, when I turn A/C on it makes a weird sound that I've never heard before...

Anyone had similar experience? Any inputs/insights??

Thank you

Check the ribbon cable plug behind the center console that covers the shift ****. It might be loose. That, or the plug behind the guages themselves. There's a small one behind the cluster, but you have to remove the enter front center console to get to it...
