This thread has convinced me to continue to handlay my own turnouts!
I am not savvy enough about electricity to have to deal with problems like this one!
It took me a decade or more to eliminate such "turnout Induced" short circuits ... and that was when I started laying my track by hand and using isolated, power-routed frogs, wired from underneath!
Good luck, E-Paw! I hope you find the source of the problem and find a way to overcome it, short of tearing all of the track out and replacing it!
