Bad Monterey gas gauge

I have a 1999 19' Monterey and it seems most of the gauges have gone bad, but a real problem is the gas gauge. Anyone else have this issue, and is the fix, the sending unit or gauge itself? Appreciate any advise

If you short the pink wire to ground and the gauge moves, it is the sender. A sender and gauge set is not much more expensive than the sender alone. Changing both will make sure there is no problem. This assumes there is power to the gauge now.
