Default 2016 Is200t ELECTRICAL FAILURE??????

Please Help!!!! I own a 2016 is200t f sport. It has 47,000 miles on it and i’ve never had any issues. Today I get into the vehicle on my lunch break and My AC won’t work, the tpms system is down, windows don’t operate, Traction control system is down, Eco mode won’t work, Reverse camera doesn’t guide anymore, and these are the things that i have just noticed. The vehicle still runs and operates with basic functions but i’m sure what the problem is. I’m clearly having some electrical type of issue. I originally thought maybe it was a fuse if some sort but i couldn’t imagine one fuse could have an effect on so many different systems.

Please let me know if any of you know any thing. Thanks i’m Advance!!

Do you have any mods you have done to the car recently? What actually does work? I assume the car is fully functioning... if so, maybe get the battery tested first. A lot of auto parts stores or mechanics can do that for you.

Here is the response I posted in the other thread you started:

It's likely one of the fuses under the hood...one of the large ones that are larger than 30A.
As those large fuses feed multiple systems, this would explain why so many things have stopped working.

The Power Windows, TPMS, and A/C fuses are all fed power by the 120A J/B LH-AM fuse.
I didn't look at all the items you said were not working, but likely they are tied to the same fuse.
Question is, why did the 120A fuse blow? If that is indeed the issue. A mouse could be the simple answer.

Fuses don’t blow out of nowhere.

Janky modifications lead to issues, as does janky repair work. What is the cars history?

This OP posted this issue in another thread where @rL-gT and I both suggested it might be a mouse...my money is still on a fury little friend having the munchies.

If there's another thread I can close this one - sounds like the more up-to-date info is there anyway. Closing as this thread with its title is major bait anyway.
