Are you sure its not the connector before you buy a new one? When I had the Yammies I had a problem with the connector on one of those.
Also, If you have twins, swap sides and see if the problem moves.
You can also compare ohm readings between them

thanks for all the advice.I do have twins and neither side guage works but they are also 20yrs.old. I have working fuel guages and gps to monitor trip .just like having stuff work.
Did they quit gradually, suddenly, separately, both at the same time? Are they after the water separator? If you blow gently on the intake side, you should be able to hear the turbine spin.
they are before the water separator and quit separately I think they are just old and hopefully gunked up.I am going to take them apart and inspect will get used from ebay if needed.
I pulled one apart before and got it working for a little while before it failed again. Its not supposed to be serviceable but I figured I had nothing to loose. There is a spinning wheel in there and it was all loaded up with debris. I remember at least 1 bolt would not come out, I got it out but ruined the bolt, I bought a longer one at the hardware store and used a nut/bolt. It never leaked but only worked interminably after wiring was ruled out.
