Just an update to #1, it has happened 2 more times, this time I paid a little more attention, the speedometer needle continues to climb until power is restored, the odometer and trip meter go out but it reads the maintenance interval like when you first turn the car on. I have no clue but I am guessing the power is being cut from the cluster for a second. I am going to dig into it tomorrow and check all the plugs and pins.
