No power

I don't have a wiring schematic yet, see if anyone has any ideas before I get one.

The horn button in the steering wheel isn't a very tight fit, a glove hooked it, and pulled it free. The bare terminals on the bottom side, arc'd on the steel of the steering wheel housing. The forklift went dead. I found a blown 15A fuse inside the back cover (bottom fuse in a 4 fuse block). Replaced the fuse, and everything started working again.

The horn button got pulled out again. Same arc happened... Same fuse was blown in the back cover. This time, replacing the blown fuse hasn't fixed it. The lights work, but that's it. When you turn the key, nothing happens.

Does anyone have any idea's on what else to check? I'll be looking into ordering a manual at some point this week if I need to, but any ideas to speed up getting this thing going would be appreciated!

Fact of the week
The word "okay" (or its abbreviation "OK") originated as a humorous misspelling. In the 1830s, a fad in Boston involved using abbreviations of intentionally misspelled phrases. "OK" stood for "oll korrect," a playful mispronunciation of "all correct".
