Default Dashboard Gauges/Trip Computer

UGH.
My dashboard and trip computer are being very strange.
Both of them have gone from normal functioning, to crazily functioning, and to not functioning at random intervals throughout the week.
I have tried taking them out, cleaning all the contacts, but they continue to be crazy.
Right now, neither of them function at all.
Where is the main power supply for the dashboard gauges? (1987)
Where is the power supply for the trip computer (also, is their a way I can bypass it entirely? I don't use it and all it does is leech my battery).
Is there something i'm not thinking of? I'm going crazy, electrical is not my strong suit. :s

Thanks in advance.

Sounds like a dodgy ground if it's both the dash panel and the trip computer?

Do you have the wiring schematic?

Cheers,
