Boost Guage problems PLEASE HELP!

Hey, I got guages for christmas. I installed all three and everything went good, all the lights worked i started the truck up and everything worked except for the boost. I took the guage out and the hose was crimped. I went and bought a new compression fitting and put it all back together and still nothing. SO i went to the T-fitting and took that part to see if there was anything in there and it was clear. So i put that all back together and moved the hose up a little and around and still nothing. So i took the tube off from the T-fitting at the drivers side and there was no air coming out. WHAT IS GOING ON PLEASE HELP!! Sorry but im the one who has the NEW GUAGES,Please help. But something went wrong.

there will be no boost at idle. disconnect the line at the T and try putting some compressed air to the line to the gauge and see if it moves.

Before putting compressed air to it, take it out and get on it to make sure that it is not reading any boost. You have to be getting on it to make the boost.
