Alright thanks guys, I will shift my focus back to the electronics even though I am stumped. I will work on it tonight and be back.
"One possibly to quickly track the fault is rather than measure current on each fuse leg; disconnect battery from both terminals and measure each fuse output to ground. Usually that won't work because of electronics but because feels like a short it would work."
I dont quite get that? How is that going to tell me anything with nothing going threw the car? Also its a V8, sorry. Thanks aging for sticking with me guys and gals
