the best way to attack things like this is to not get your hopes up at every little thing you try.. it crushes you a little each time something doesn't work/fix the problem. it adds to the stress with each letdown

I am not starting bodywork until this is resolved. Hey, what happened to Tom?

I did the G902 ground to another spot, and nothing. No change.

When I put the test light to the ground, no blinky.

Did the dash lights come on with headlights after you replaced the blown fuse 13?
Has fuse 13 blown again since you replaced it?

I had pulled the cluster and tried the signal, still the same results.

The radio (cd player) still works as it should as well.

I afraid it's down to chasing the light blue with red strip wire. It goes from fuse 13 to all over hell's half acre.
Do you have the electronic cluster?
I am using the 87 EVTM, hopefully there there are no differances with the 88 in this area.
I'll see if I can come up with some connectors to unplug to narrow it down.
I hope you have extra fuses.

Woops, I skipped over this too fast. So the turn signal is getting tied into the dash lights before it gets to the cluster.
The green turn signal indicator is part of the cluster, right?

Well, if you keep blowing fuse 13 you have to isolate the short.

I am not near my manuals to help you, but the idea is to unhook  everything and see if the fuse blows.  If it doesn't then connect items on the circuit one at a time until the fuse blows. Then fix the bad component or wire section.

Any help is well appreciated. I have extra fuses, and can get more. I have the buttstuffog cluster.

Unhook everything? Do I have to pull the dash again?
