It could be a broken connection somewhere that enables the lights and then the leave a light on a start the car after 3+hrs is a back-up or something ???

Loose connections, especially dry solder joints can be dependant on temperature changes. So it is possible once you get the lights on current flow heats the circuit up in the point of loose connection because of increased resistance and as the material expands it makes better connection so it works.
I am not saying that this is definitely the fault, just shooting out some ideas. I have done fair deal of DIY electronic repairs and have seen similar problem in many CRT TV's I used to buy from recycling centre, fixing and selling on some 6-7 years ago. Also you may have heard of Nvidia GPU faults in laptops with similar nature.
