New information on my warm start problems

I posted below about warm start problems with my wife's 98CSE. Well it quit entirely tonight and we had to get a AAA tow home. What was very interesting though, is that when you turn the key, there are no lights at all on the dash - totally dead. The starter still cranks and the headlights and radio still work, but nothing on the dash and no ACC. I hear some relays click in, but I don't hear the fuel pump.
I know the ignition switch can sometimes fail, but wouldn't that stop everything electrical?
What else could it be? ECU? Can I swap the ECU from my 95 into the 98 to test it? I know it wouldn't work long term due to the OBDII issues as well as different turbos, but would it work temporarily?
The good news is the intermittent problem is no longer intermittent - so should be much easier to diagnose!
