Wow, huh.
It may happen you have 2 issues - as you pointed out your car "dies" while driving, I assume you mean it chokes etc similary to switching off ignition while driving? that points to SCU as Clan said, but the interior light making dash to loose power - I think there may be something else related to it, just no clue what as never come across this before...

So dashboard "dies" but car still drives fine? What about icons on dash, like indictors or high beam? Im trying to understand if that behaves like you cut off the power to dash completely?
Also, does that also happen when you switch only "reading" lights? (the ones that doesnt relate to main interior lights, on sides of the dome).
