1979 half ton 318 Power Wagon. Running well that day. Started it up and killed the motor by letting clutch out too fast. Turned ignition key and had suddenly lost all electrical power (as if battery had been removed). Checked battery posts. They’re okay. With tester, I have power to starter relay and wires leading from its positive post. With key on, nothing works (ignition,headlights, wiper, heater fan, ect.) except the hazard warning light blinkers. I changed the starter relay out and there was no change. I suspect there’s just one thing that caused this from the way it happened. Looking for advice on how to trouble shoot to find it. John
