Similar issue happened to my BILs vehicle some years back (Vitz)

Similar symptoms everything else worked locks, dash board indicators, radio but the car wouldn't start.

Following day battery was dead.

Had to carry the car for car to repair and the diagnostics did not work either as the ECU was fried.

He had to replace ECU, alternator, a/c pump, power steering and numerous sensors.

Fortunately his insurance covered the cost under natural disaster damages.
