Exclamation electrical nightmare!!

Alright so one day after work i jump in my truck to go home and go to roll down my windows as it was hot inside, to my surprize they didnt go down. than when i went to put my truck in drive the shifter would not unlock even tho the truck is running. so by than I knew there was a problem. tried my wind shield wipers they 2 did not work. nore does my dome lights or cargo. i managed to find a way to move the blocker that prevented me from putting it in gear and than found out my 4x4 switch dont work either. i went to my mechanic and he followed the wireing diagram to the ignition switch in my stearing collum.

Any body with more info or is a mechanic please this is bad timing as i was just about to put a lift ad 35s on her.

Thanks Ryan

Use a volt meter and check and see if your getting power to any of these areas first. If not, could be a fuse block. Most are located in the engine compartment by the battery Hope this helps.

there is multiple fuses not getting power all in sequence. i followed the wireing diagram and they all feed of the ignition switch it seems.
