ACC power

I've used my Chilton manual,

But I am trying to figure out what gets power when the key turns to ACC. I still have a problem with a short.

I unplugged everything I could think of. Individually plugged things back one at a time. Once everything was plugged in, the dash lit up and the car turned over. I drove it in the cul de sac and it blew the ignition fuse again.

Just to be clear this is the #4 fuse in the underhood box?

what was the last thing you plugged in that kept it from starting? If you unplugged everything, car started, plug one thing in, start car, until you find the link that is keeping it from starting.

Exactly what I did. I had everything off and fuses out. Then one by one I put things back in and even turned them on. Five minutes and Ignition 30a popped.

fuse pulling is the best thing meter out each on in the panel at each point of the key postion.

Yup, just haven't had time to work on her again.
