did it stay running?if it did did it turnback over after you shut it off?i would check the junction box under the hood to see whats up cause all of it goin out like that has to be a junction bow or fuse box thing i would think maybe check the battery cable running to the box

the box with all the fuses under the hood.just follow the big battery cable.the cable could be shot or loose maybe turn your headlights on and wiggle some wires and see if you can find the issue if your headlights turn on.you will probably find your battery killer too

Get the engine running, and with a voltmeter on the battery, check the voltage. If it's charging you should have around 14 volts on the battery.

Look under the hood on the passenger side inner wheel well. Check this wire out and see if there is any signs of burn marks.
