05 MR Electrical Problems
I've had an Electrical problem with my 05 MR. I got a call from work as I drove into my driveway. I left the car idling about 35 minutes as I was dealing with the work. After I returned to the car I drove a few miles to do some erands, parked the car and returned 15 minutes later.
When I started the car the ABS light stayed on and none of the accesories would work: fan, radio, rear window defogger.
This happen late and the dealer was closed. It has not happened again and No codes in the computer.
Any ideas?

I wouldn't worry about it unless it happens again...
I'm not a crazy car person, but my theory is that since the 4g63ts are known to get hot really fast and easily, the heat probably messed with the electronics (since you were idling for 35 mins, there were no wind to cool the car down, so maybe the electronics been exposed to heat for too long...)
