While driving at normal speed, I hear a clicking noise then the instrument cluster gauges all drop to zero. While it does this for about 10 seconds, there is a buzzing noise and all the gauges shake. They return to normal. While this happens, the car drives great and there is no "check engine" light and it's as nothing happened. What can be causing this?
