Check and insure cable connections to the battery are tight and exhibit no corrosion.

I have same problem. Dealership can’t help when everything is working. I have to remove negative battery cable for about two minutes. Reconnect and system comes up fine. Problems is it keeps coming back and has started shutting off the car at stops on occasion. Everything dies and cable has to be removed again to restore function. Dealer can’t help if it is working.
