Hello, sorry to hear about your issue. Some information is needed first about the truck. Is this a 1500 or 2500 series? Does it have an extended cab?
And which Ignition Fuse was it?
There's A 40amp, B 50amp, C 20amp ,1 10amp ,SEO 10amp, O 10amp ,E 10amp , 3 10amp, That I see so far
If you can't respond until tomorrow that's okay too.

Also, here are some basic guides that I suspect we will need to figure this out.

If the fuse is blowing immediately then we most likely have an electrical issue like a short to ground on this circuit which is why we need to know which fuse it is.

Once we know the detail about the vehicle we will be able to provide some wiring diagrams that will show where the possible issues are.

Let us know. Thanks
