So my 94 zj starts then dies. It's showing 12.4 volts at the battery but on the gauge it doesn't even register. I'm coming up with codes 12 and 33. Any ideas? Thanks.

take the door panel off the driver door. peel back the tape on the wiring harness in the door, and find the purple wire with a yellow tracer. cut it, and ground the end going into the vehicle

Well, the problem turned out to be very simple. My buddy and I were redoing my inner fenders and somehow drilled through the main wire harness. The jeep won't stay running with 8 wires drilled thriugh. Who would've guessed.
