Melt down...

No lights, no turn signals, windows, top, locks, ignition, odometer, speedo, tach, gas gauge, etc.... (Almost) nothing working....

I was able to start it with the key in the ignition, but I could not turn it off!! Did not know if the brakes would work.

Drove to the dealer, said "call me when you figure it out..."

Anybody seen this? Most importantly, how do I turn it off if it happens again?

Aren't integrated circuits grand?

Cheers,
Claudio

P.S. As of a few minutes ago, the dealer has ordered a new "electronic ignition switch" to fix all her ills.
