Need advice for electrical repair on jeep in Winter Haven fl. Area

Got a call tonight about moms 1998 jeep Cherokee. Seems the gauges in the dash have stopped working and they took it to a Chrysler dealer.

They told them it will need something new and it will be $1,600 to repair.

But they can wiggle some wires under the dash and they will work while doing this.

So, I think it could be repaired without replacing the dash cluster, or whatever they told them.

So is there anyone in the central Florida area that knows of a good auto elecrtical specialist that they could take it to and not get TAKEN?

Or has anyone had this problem with their jeep and fixed it?

I hate being 1,000 miles away and them call and ask my advise on things like this when I cannot help them

Too many older people get taken advantage of and that just isn't right!
