What is your question?
Everything was o.k. until I turned on air conditioning. Which doesn't work, I thought it did. Could turning it on have caused damage? I only had it on for a minute, then realized it didn't work.
What makes this problem better or worse?

I think it could have created an extra load on the engine, which exposed some pre-existing issues. A flashing engine light indicates presence of an engine misfire in progress. Diagnostic testing, including retrieving diagnostic trouble codes from the engine processor, is needed to determine where to focus attention on to troubleshoot the concern. Certainly, the air conditioning system is a concern, but first -- focus on the engine and engine performance issue and resolve that as without doing that you can cause further issues and damage elsewhere.
