Tech bulletin? Take to dealer.

On the other hand, was it just the lights that went out? Or did the
ENTIRE CAR turn off? If that happened, ignition switch.

No it did not shut off the engine just the lights on the dash board?

Remembering the way the ignition switch went on the '96 Odyssey, it
still could be the switch. There were occasional episodes of just the
dash lights blinking out for some time before the engine stopped as
well.

I would first look for a bad ground for the dash lights, then if
that's not it, check the headlight switch, then if you still haven't
found it, the ignition switch.
