My car does start on a morning. Whilst driving all lights come on dash then go off after 2 minutes. A park car up go back after couple hours and nothing turn key lights come on but wont turn over. Leave it for 3 hours come back it starts.

Good morning,

I would start by having the battery load tested to be sure there is not a failure at the battery.

I would clean the battery cables as dirty cables will cause low voltage and that alone will cause all your issues.
