Smiths gauges also come in electric form as well as the capillary type with bourdon tube, as does VDO and everybody elses. The sender will probably be 0-90 ohms or another common spec. To test the gauge earth out the wire to the sender on the block, the gauge should rise and stay steady, also check the sener with a multimeter as it warms up.
Firstly though, double check all earths as mentioned above.
