Question
my battery keep going dead and i thought it was the alienator but its not so im thinking is it a wiring problem

the second question is that my gauges went out and none of my fuses are blown what could be the problem

Answer
You need to install an AMP METER between the negative battery cable and the battery to see how many AMPS the vehicles electrical system is drawing out of the battery. They do make DIGITAL AMP METERS that you just clamp over the battery cable and it will read the amps being drawn.

MAXIMUM draw is 1/2 amp.

Do you have a DIGITAL or ANALOG dash ?.

EXACTLY what guages are not working ?.
