Hey everyone. I have a 1998 Lexus ES300 that is having some electrical issues that I hope one of you brilliant individuals can provide some insight into. When I start the car, the engine runs just fine, but the entire dash is off, every light, the AC and stereo unit is completely off, brake lights and turn signals do also not work. Other things that do not work are the electronic door locks and the shifter. Essentially all electronics inside the cabin are completely off. I am guessing it is a blown fuse but I have no idea which fuse would cause the entire cabin to not function. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Just in case anyone is wondering, the alternator is running well and the battery is fresh, kept on a trickle charge when not in use (I rarely drive the car anymore), and the battery is also putting out the standard 12 volts.

Next to the battery pull the fuse box "Tetris" cover and l inspect the fuses especially higher current ones that have a transparent top.
