I have an HKS oil pressure gauge with peak hold and it had been acting a little funny over the past few weeks. It would read pressure, then sometimes it wouldnt. Its now not working at all. The backlights still work and all the connectors are plugged in including the bung. Am I missing something here. What could it be? Thanks in advance.

bought a used gauge? sendin unit is going out. but first check your wiring. i'd recommend not half assing on wiring, could be just a bad ground or the hot wire shorting if its getting unpluged/pluged back

I bought these brand new and they have worked for over 2 years...maybe more. Im thinking it just went out.

Is it electrical or mechanical?

If electrical check the signal wire just like 420sx said... Make sure it's not getting shorted or disconnected somehow. If it looks okay test the sensor output...
