Default Question!!!! [problems with car since battery died]

Hey guys not sure if this is the right place to post or not but imma give it a go anyway, Today my 2006 Lexus is 250 battery died (due to leaving radio on while cleaning car). When I went to go turn the car on, it didn't start the first time, however started again on the second go with a little bit of hesistation I'm guessing due to low power, everything was working except for I noticed all of the warning lights were on in the car. I turned the car off and 30 minutes later I turned the car on again, however when I turned it on now the power steering, radio, windows and turn signals don't work.

Is there a part of the story that you are leaving out? Like hooking up jumper cables backwards? No offense if you didn't, it just seems odd that the fusible link would blow just from the battery running down.

Same thing happened to me. Had the battery replaced, and all was good for 2-3 hours and then happened again.

Check your alternator.
