Unfortuneately the most likely (only) problem is the ignition switch shorted internally If you look at the wires going into the switch you will most likely see that a black wire is melted This is a ground wire for the switch All the insulation may be bubbled or melted right off You need a switch and that wire replaced if you see this. Either way i think you need a switch

How do you replace ignition switch on 96 ford 350 diesel?

The ignition switch is located on the bottom of the steering column on the top of the steering shaft the side closest to the dash board. First you have to disconnect the 4 bolts holding the support plate that holds the steering column. Then pull the steering column down as far as it will go. Then you disconnect the 4 screws holding the ignition switch. Take off the old one and replace it with the new one. The new ignition switch will have grooves in it so that you can adjust it. You want to push it as close to the steering wheel as you can get it then tighten down the screws. reassemble the steering column and the start it and drive away!!
