Hey guys! Looking for some advice to get our van back on the road.

87 4x4 5spd 330k

My IGN fuse blows when I turn the key to 'on' position.

Along the bottom row of the instrument cluster only my radiator light is illuminating when key is in 'on' position.

I visually inspected the ignition switch and ignition switch harness. I didn't say anything obviously wrong (burnt or melted). There was some corrosion on one pin which I cleaned. I checked the battery cablyes and grounds and everything looks good. Fuses behind the passenger seat look good.

What can I do next to start trouble shooting this?

i'd start where any recent work was done for a bad wire... sounds like a short :wall:
