How's the battery? 12 volts? Ninty minutes isn't all that long but if your brakelight switch stuck, it will kill the power.Now IF you have power at the battery > Then check the connections, Grounds first and then the terminal block at the Battery (follow the red cable to where it makes ir's first stop. If you can move the connectors, they are loose) First and foremost remove the negative battery connector and then the positive one, clean them and tigten any others that you find BEFORE putting the negative one back (the reason is that if you slip with a wrench on the positive and gound it there won't be a circuit to cause sparks)
Assuming all connections are now clean and tight, check fuses, At this
point you should be at least getting power to the system. Back to the brake light switch, these stinkers are prone to sticking and are not adjustable, mine sticks regularly and I always nudge the pedal up as I am getting out of the car, a look at the brake lights isn't a bad idea befor walking away either. Good luck
