No Spark but cranks- blowing main fuse by breaker/starter relay

Daewoo G25E-3 forklift was running fine until ran out of LP. After they changed tank it had a no-start condition. We found the main fuse by breaker & starter relay (in frt. of battery) blown and replaced it only to have it blow again upon turning on ignition. Changed all relays but figure we have a short somewhere, have unplugged all top wiring and no changes, now looking at possibly ignition switch or coil/module wires below. Has anyone had this experience, or are we probably going to have to hunt for a shorted wire?, thanks
