Fuel gauge repair?



Any tips on diagnosing a faulty fuel and temperature gauge?

I checked the 1962to1965 tech site.  The first couple of articles are
stale links and don't work anymore:
# Solid state update for a MoPar Instrument Cluster Voltage Regulator
# Diagnosing And Repairing Faulty Instrument Gauges

The others may help, but are more for a 68.

This is a 1963 Polara 500 with a 383.  My symptom is that both the
fuel and temperature gauges read 0; they never did work so it's not
the result of anything I did recently.  The voltage gauge works fine
and dash lights work fine.  It's a new sending unit since I recently
coated the gas tank inside.

I'm not real savvy electrically, but I have some basic knowledge and a meter.

As always, thanks for any help.
