I've been advised to "bypass" the Ammeter in my newly purchased '79 Power Wagon as they are a fire hazard, or at least melt the dash hazard. I do recall hearing this before, I believe possibly on other Mopars. I'd really like to still have the gauge in the pod for looks. I have not opened up the dash yet, but am about to as I have purchased NOS gauges to replace faded ones and the typical broken speedometer needle. I want to do everything at once while I have dash apart, and I am wondering if there's a wire or two I can snip on the Ammeter behind face plate, and still have it plugged into the pod for the sake of looks?

Thanks.
