The 7.5A IGN fuse keeps blowing as soon as the ignition is turned on. A multimeter indicates there is a 5 ohm resistance between the fuse and ground and continuity (dead short?) from fuse to ground. The wiring is a mess in these things and an experienced forklift tech tells me they are infamous for having wiring issues. If I pull the other fuses and check, it seems several of them have continuity to ground on the output side with good +12V on the buss side, but none of the other fuses blow. Even the 10A fuse output seems to have continuity to ground. HELP!
