Looking at the wiring diagram again, and thinking out loud. Correct me if I'm wrong, here. I am following +12v being tapped at the starter solenoid, traveling along the red wire, to the problem/symptom fuse, changing color to black and then running to the B terminal of the ignition switch. It would appear this is the primary 12v+ for the entire ignition switch, not sure why they would tap it at the starter solenoid, but whatever.
Would this logical tracing of this circuit indicate that there is likely a short to ground in the red section between the ignition switch and the fuse?
To test, I am thinking to check for continuity to ground on that side of the fuse and if that's the case... I suppose run a new wire from the solenoid to the fuse, or pay the frustration tax and drop $200 on a new harness.
