Default S80 Dies Driving Down Highway

Hello all...
My 2005 s80 died today driving down the highway. A few minutes before it dies, I notice airbag light comes on, speedometer shuts off completely, was able to get off highway and car shuts off completely. Car turns over (clicking) but not starting. Still have electric (power locks, door tones etc.) Come back in an hour, it starts up fine, drive it to Advance Auto. Alternator tests fine (was just replaced in the fall) and battery (which is really old (2011/12) still tests fine 12.88 volts, 784 CCA. No codes are showing. Something electrical happened because my clock and radio presets all reset. Full of fuel as well. Can anyone guide me as to where to head next?
Thanks!

Could be due to a few things. Battery/cables, relays, ignition switch come to mind first.
