Best Answer

Definitely sounds like an electrical short cutting the power to the ignition system. The first place you may want to start looking is the wiring in the steering column if the windshield wiper controls are on the steering column, or behind the dash if the controls are on the dash. The most obvious signs would be burnt and/or bare wires.
