Help, My A/C went out !

So I just finished my stereo installation, I was putting back the center console when I broke accidentally the grey piece that holds the plug behind the a/c control panel. I thought that this little part was just to hold the plug in place, but nothing works anymore. Not even the fan. I checked the fuses, everything is good.
Do you have any idea what happened and how I can fix that ? I hope I don't have to change the whole thing (wires and plug), it's gonna cost a lot.
Thanks for your fast answers 'cause I really need the a/c, living in Vegas and it is august ...

Pull the drivers side panel and you can see behind center panel , there's a plug there for the A/C and it's probably unplugged or loose , just need to make sure it's plugged in ...

i hope its just a loose plug. i was just reading up on the climate control system. those 3 ***** are a assembly and not sold separate and control alot of funtions. not sure about the plug you broke, but if it makes contact it should still be ok, might have to tape it so it doesnt come apart. check all the fuses and the sjb just in case something tripped. maybe disconnect the battery and reset stuff?

I doubt if he broke it , it just hard to get plugged back in and have it stay connected while putting the center panel back in. Once the center panel is in place , you can plug it in from the drivers side ...

yeah tell me about it, I was so frustrated ! I brought the car at oasis automotive in Henerson, NV. They know a lot about mustangs, the guy worked for 1h30 on it to find out the issue and fix it ...
But yeah, I thought as well it was pretty expansive to fix just a cut ...
