I was driving my jeep the other day and all of a sudden the temp gauge maxed out so I pulled over and checked and nothing about it was running hot. Next the gauge starts dancing up and down and my speedometer quit working as well as my brights indicator. I pulled the dash apart checking plugs what else could cause this?

if you have an electrical diagram, look for what is coming with temp, brights, and speedo. it could be a bad ground somewhere. if the problem is flickering like that, i would think you have an electrical connection that is loose and breaking contact when you hit the bumps.
this is one of the reasons i have a CJ. much easier to work on, and a lot less "stuff" to deal with
