ya im pretty sure if everything just dies liek that.....
its obviously a power issue...

so things to check is battery and alternator.......

but if the car was running and just shut off....
that tells me it might be the alternator....
seems like the alternator aint charging the battery so ur car was running off just the battery for a while basically till it died

first thing u should do is check that all ur power wires are connected properly and tightend to the batt. termainals and check grounds.....

if all thats fine.......u gotta whip out the multimeter and do some tests
