My '75 has started perfectly for many years; today that record ended. I had been checking my remote start button that mounts in the engine compartment. Started the car a couple of times. I then got in the car to move into the garage, turn the ignition key to acces position and NO dash lights, no accessories or lights would work. Turning the switch to the start position was useless.
The battery is good; I have power to the hot side of the fuse panel; the relays on the fuse panel are good.All the fuses are good as well An I correct that the ignition switch is fried ? Attached image(s)

One word of warning: The 75-76 ignition switch removal is different from the 72-74 that's described in the Pelican tech article. I don't know how to remove the late style, though.
