Help, ASB and DSC came on. Also what does this light mean?

Help, my ASB and DSC light came on today for a second, and it seemed like my car just turned off. I tried to turn it back on, but it wont start. Even when I have it on the "On" mode, all the gauges stayed OFF and wont even crank. I waited for a minute, and tried again, and it worked. Anyone know whats going on?


Also, what does this light mean ?? The one with a picture of a car and a key in the the middle.

I know how to turn the DSC light off. My MAIN question was about the car's interior lights NOT lighting up and car NOT cranking. I found out what happened already, its the 15a fuse on the driver side.
