Smile gs300 blinking gas light

Hey guys.
It just snowed in houston, tx and my 99 lexus was covered in ice.
I couldnt even get into the car.
Once the snow and ice cleared yesterday, I decided to start the car.
My gas light started to blink as well as my window switches were not working.
My a/c blower is not working either.
Is there a common fuse that I should look for? I think that the icy weather damaged soemthing electrical.
If you guys have any advice, I would appreciate it.



Harley

Mine did this on a really really cold morning - I chocked it up to high resistance in electrical connections, which happens on many different vehicles when the temp drops below zero... Mine went away after it warmed up to 0, lol... Aside from starting to grab electrical connectors related to the issue and unplugging and plugging back in, good luck... start with pulling the cluster, there are two back there, then maybe the ecu plugs in the engine bay...
