Thanks CB. In this case rather than a current failure, it was an electrical short circuit causing the gauge to display full. So, I wondered whether a "push to test" button wired in a certain way would effectively set the needle to zero when pressed. That way, if I "pushed to test" and the needle remained on full, I'd know it was shorting out. Only a thought, I'm no expert on aviation electronics!
