VSA Lights Come On, Gauges Quit, A/C Stops Working

I have a 2004 Acura TL 6mt with a little over 225k miles on her. Starting back in May, the VSA lights began to come on randomly, followed by my gauges jumping from what they were at, to 0/empty, then would back up. I also noticed that as I would continue to drive, the A/C would stop blowing cold. I have seen other members having similar problems, but it does not look like any one has ever come to a solution. All of the dealers I have called do not have a clue and only offer a diagnostics test to try and determine. The problem with it happening intermittently is that it may be hard to diagnose. I obviously understand it is a 14 y/o car with 225k miles, so it is understandable that small electrical problems may happen, but looking to see if anyone has ever come to a solution. I have a video attached below to show what happens as well.

I

Thanks everyone.

Battery or battery terminal corrosion Either ground or positive cables. Same thing happened to me and the positive cable terminal was eaten through.
