fuse #18 on this list is burnning But only when the key is in the start position.

In run it is fine. I can also start the car and then put the fuse in and it does not burn.

the fuse powers most of the cluster.

I am unsure of where to look next to try and fix the problem.

Thanks for any help



As a side Note where is the Restart Choke Control?

I'd get myself a whole bunch of fuses, and systematically unplug each device individually until the fuse doesn't pop.

If the fuse doesnt burn immediately, when does it burn?

I have already poped a few unplugging and then testing.

That is how I found that it only goes once the key goes to the start position. but I can't find a drawing showing the switch and items in the start position.

No info about your car's model year, EFI or carb, no mods listed. Makes it hard to troubleshoot when we don't know what you have.

Therefore, no clue as to which wiring diagram you need. The wiring changed several times between 79 & 95.

That's why it is a good idea to use the sig under the user control panel (User CP) option. It allows you to post your car year & mods, which help greatly when troubleshooting things. No, it is not there for us to snoop and see any "Secrets" you have hidden away under the hood. Be a good stangnetter and update you sig for future reference & don't keep us guessing.
