94 4.0 ranger loss of electrical

[gonzowelder]

94 ranger w/4.0 driving down road and every thing went dead then power kicked in drove to airport where it happened again in the ramp. Jiggled wires and power restored. Now back home and lost power while driving back home many times but would kick back in. Now tried to restart and nothing - very dim dome light. 13.5v at battery 7.2v at solonoid - replaced starter wires and solonoid wires same voltage. + battery terminal getting very warm a short somewhere. - running out of ideas.
Help please
