Default dash board all light go off when driving

I drove my rx300 2003 yesterday. the lights went off -completely off , no power windows, no light ...., except for the emergency light can flash. so dangerous on HYW. So I parked along the way and check battery , breaker for a while. about 30 mins, my can FINALLY can start engine.
Anyone can tell me why ? Thanks in advance!!

Yikes! Only thing I can think of is battery terminals loose or corroded.

What was done recently to the RX?

There seems to be a loose connection or bad ground [typically some one forgot to put back a ground connection].

The reason, I am responding to your post with a question is that, Lexus has one of the best electrical system. Good insulation, every joint has a slack and there are tension reliefs everywhere. The only time they are compromised is when some one does not do a meticulous job.
