Hey

I have a 90 mustang convertible, and I shorted a wire somewhere. There was smoke coming from the steering column. The ignition key won't crank the starter, although the accessories come on. (Ie. radio, wipers, hazards, horn)The convertible top doesn't work, the directionals don't work, and also the heater blower. Any suggestions as to where to start looking for the short?

Thanks

No real advice to offer you, except good luck. I hate electrical problems
