Had a similar problem with my motor home. The problem is that the ignition switch cannot handle the current. Workhorse (the chassis manufacture) has a fix for it which is a 40 amp relay and some wiring changes. I changed the ignition switch too. Mine is a 2001 P32 chassis and the ignition protection relay was workhorse part # WCCW8002060 it contains thr relay a 40 amp fuse wiring harness , terminal and instructions. The ignition switch is most likely fried too fortunately it's a common GM switch go to http:/oemys- performance.com/whpartspxx.htm look under P chassis, then steering column and there is a list of manufactures and their part numbers for the ignition switch.

Hope this helps.
