first, oil gauge wire, or oil light wire? If oil light, that would definitely not make any difference. If a gauge (aftermarket).. who's to say how whoever wired that up, but I doubt it ever was the problem.

Fuse blew when you "turned IGN over".. is that to say it blew when you turned ignition on, or did it blow when you turned the key to the start position?

You say you had nothing on... how about the brakes. Did you have your foot on the brakes when you were about to start the car in that parking spot? I'd be suspect of brake lights or the wipers still. If not the brake lights, I'd pull the feed wire off the wiper switch and see what happens... (if the wipers don't think they are 'parked', they might still be trying to move even if the switch is off)
