Hey Cycle,
The Oil Warning/Brake light might just be a "RED" herring and have nothing to do with your problem, or just a coincidental event?
Okay, new fuseblock, so your main fuse should be okay, so I'd look at your main SWITCH...the thing you put the key in and turn. You can take it off, unplug it, and then apart....corrosion can occur there along with the wires actually coming unsoldered from the switch plate!
