One of two scenarios.
1. I do not know how to properly use a test light.
2. The Sun gauge works a bit differently than stock stock arrangements.

On the bright side, the gauge appears to be good. The downside is the sender for these is tough to find.

At any rate, the problem is solved for now. Thanks to everyone who took the time and effort

There’s a guy on EBay who reproduces those senders. He must know a fair amount about that particular gauge to make the senders no one else makes . Maybe send a message and ask for some pointers on testing . Is there someone close by you w a gauge you could wire in and test to see if it acts the same?

If you were concerned it was the sender not grounding just wrap a wire around the threads to the ground on the battery and see what it does. That should answer that question fairly quickly
