Fuel gauge question

95 F-250, 4.9 EFI, Auto 2wd. Does anyone have any ideas or a direction to go on what would cause my fuel gauge to not register? There's fuel in both tanks but they don't move when the tanks are switched or read the levels. The rear tank and pump assembly is new. I can usually figure this stuff out, but my brain isn't playing.
TIA

You hear the selected pump turn on but the needle doesn’t move? Is this for both tanks or only one tank? It seems like a gauge problem. There should a wiring diagram in a thread somewhere

Correct. I have the wiring diagram in my Haynes manual for what it's worth. Im thinking that the gauge might be bad. Thanks for the reply!
