Default Re: Fuse....

You have an aftermarket ignition switch.


Does this happen with the key only in the "on" position or all the time?


Did you just install the ignition switch , if not, what was going on when this started. Had you been doing other electrical work on the car?


As stated by WMWS, I suspect the black wire goes to the distributor and something is shorted in the distributor or the armored cable. if there is one.


If this happens no matter if the key is either in the OFF or ON position, I may be the switch itself. If it does not happen when the key is in the OFF position, there is a problem with the black wire or something inside the distributor itself.


My opinion,
