help electrical gone haywire!!!

hi everybody,
Yesterday i was driving out to the farm to help with wheat harvest with my 92'. Everything was working great. Then just driving down the road the blower motor quits, i look down and the brake light wait to start light and the water in fuel light are on. I pushed the AC button off and they went out. then went to roll the power windows down and they don't work now either!!! And when i hit the window button those same 3 lights on the dash light up. I checked the fuse box and all looked ok. Where do i even begin to look on this thing? I do not know where to start. HELP!!! thanks

Check your fusible links on the drivers side inner fender below the hinge. When one of them melts, the steart back feeding through other circuits causing all sorts of strange electrical occurances.

are these wires the 5 that spurt from 1, heavy black wire? 2 are orange, 1 is white I think, one is gray, and the last is a heavier green? They all stem from a little block of rubber that the 1 black one feeds into? Those are the fusible links.
