I drive the car to work this morning. After I got off, I tried to start my car and I only hear a click in the fuse panel. If I pull fuse 16 out, I get nothing, been through no start checklist, and I get power, jump solenoid and it cranks, just wont start. Using just the key I only hear the fuse panel click. Can someone shed some light?

Check the connection at the ignition switch on the column under the dash.

Do the checklist, that's what it is for.
None of the fuses on Fox body 5.0 Mustangs have anything to do with ignition, starter circuit or fuel pump.

I have, but the culprit is the black widow security system was put in and they did a really poor job. It has locked the ignition out.
