Strange electrical problems - Fixed

OK, something strange developed in the last couple of days.
Engine temp gauge jumps erratically and intermittently.
At the same time, the headlights and dash lights tend to flicker.
Once in a while during this phenomenon the engine hesitates.
Sometimes the glow plug lamp will also flicker.

I'm thinking this could be a ground issue on the instrument cluster, or maybe a voltage regulator issue. Has anyone else experienced something like this, or have any input.

An electrical schematic would also be helpful, if someone has one.

1980 300SD W116. - 360,000 miles and still going.
