key on, engine off, wire disconnected, the red wire should have the same as the battery-12.5 volts or so. there's a short in the harness some place. backtrack and check both sides of the firewall connector, the round plug on the cluster. when you test the connectors, test plugged in and unplugged.

if the car shuts off when the red wire is unplugged, where is the voltage, or why does it stop running? id've bet you had voltage with the key off. i'd sure like to get my hands on this thing, the light here sucks and i can't see under your hood. keep trying, chuck.
