Default how do i ckeck my ignitio switch

Hi folks I have 95 GMC 1 ton 4x4 PMD went out i replaced it ! Now the WTS light or none of the other lights in dash isnt working ! Cleaned all the grounds and cables ..It cranks, headlighs and haards work ,but wont start and no turn signals . The only thing i can think of is the ignition switch or would the EMC cause the same effects ? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Check ign B fuse under the hood if bad then more than likely you have a bad ignition switch or a open short somewhere
