Found 1 issue, but still not the main one. The issue was, since i need 1 more fuse space, i moved the cocpit lights, and wired them into the radio (acc) fuse, this caused the acc to have 12v regardless of key postion, also causing a 4-5v on the black white stripe wire when there was no fuse in the ig switch link. fixed that. so now Acc only has 12 when: White wire (30a fused link) has a fuse in, and the white wire reads 12 and key is on acc. as desinged. now, when i put it to the on postion, i get 12v for about 1/2 a second, then my 30A fuse blows.

now how am i to tell if the black /white stripe wire is grounded some where, when i check connectivity, it says its grounded. well its supposed to be grounded until it see 12 v, i verified this with a working car. so ? is, is the iss in the ignition switch itself?

White wire has 30A fuse, when key is: out, in , or on acc, this had 12 v.

acc only has 12 v when on acc

when i turn it to "on" it blows the 30a...

i dont have my dash in, so no cluster or dash harness is plugged in.. dont htink that matters.. but idk..

its a simple circut. white wire has 30a fuse (gets power from pass side of 60a fused link) this supplies constant power. when key is on "on" it diverts the 12v to the black whit white strip. (12v when running and during crank) this is when fuse blows.
