You need to look for the voltage limiter or similar component that controls the input voltages to the gauges.

In the wiring diagram, what will this be called? I have looked for something like this and can't find it. Would it be incorporated in the Ford type starter solenoid that Jeep used?

I don't think its wired like that-if it is-you'll loose ignition switch power-Been looking for it in the Mitchell1 references for this year but nothing the only thing there could be a ground or the printed circuit board problem.
