87 s10 won't start, lights won't work

I have an 87 s10 that worked this morning when I started it. Then it died, now lights and dash don't come on at all and when I start it just turns over. Signals work, etc. I had a problem with it earlier and replaced the battery, alternator, fuel filter. I need emergency help if you can please. s10 2.8 4x4. Fuses all seem fine.

It sounds like a fusible link failed.

Thanks for your reply, your the only one that nailed it. It was the inline fuse or fuseable link, the problem I had is that the manual stated that was a possibility but didn't list the location of the link, when I looked yep there was a burnt wire coming off the starter, was the fusable link, I replaced, runs like a charm. Nice to know this forum works. Appreciate you taking the time to respond!!
