Thruxton Thruxton Electrical Problem. Help Please

Hi
Was intending a ride out on the Thruxton but it’s let me down

Key in and no ignition or dash lights, only tail light is lit. Nothing on starter.

Checked fuses and the 12V bottom right on pic and Key top left on pic are blown. Replaced them and blown immediately. Tried again with battery disconnected and they blow immediately again as soon as battery is reconnected.

Not really sure where to start with this.
Hoping someone on here can give a bit of direction
Thanks in advance

 

@TRIPLE X and @littleade , thank you for the replies.
I’d found slight damage to the harness covering tape around the headstock on the part that goes to the clocks.
I’ve stripped back the tape to inspect the wires underneath and unable as yet to find a bare wire or damaged outer. There was however a burnt electrical smell around the connection to the clocks and this harness.
I then replaced fuses, reconnected and everything worked, dash lights, starter, everything. Looked at all wires and moved bars side to side, moved wiring and no issues. Turned it off and on again after another inspection for damaged wire and I’ve now lost the fuel indicator bars but everything else is fine.
Next step is to see if wiring diagram in the Haynes manual gives me any clues as to what colour does what. Then it might be to strip back more of the harness tape looking for damage.
I’ve progressed but not solved it. Thank you again for your input

 

Next update……
Stripped back some more of the tape and looked under the tank and couldn’t find any damage.
I’ve also moved the harness to different positions within its range of movement while ignition on and can’t replicate the fault.
Bearing in mind that the fuel indicator bars illuminate during the ignition on cycle, I wondered if the fuel was just not registering- this happened on the Explorer once and sorted itself out in a few miles.
I’ve put everything back on- apart from the new harness tape, been for a quick spin round the block and the fuel indicator bars and miles to go figures woke up and behaved as normal.
The bike works exactly as intended with the electrical fault seemingly disappeared!
I’m confused because something was definitely wrong but I can’t find the root cause.
I’ll tape the harness up before venturing further but I’m going to be worried about it letting me down out on the road.
