Fixing ford falcon gauges

Hey guys i have been trying to get my falcon fuel and temp gauges to work. it looks like the voltage drop mounted in the center of the dash is not working.
First question is there a way to test this unit?
second question what is a cheap replacement part?
Any body have any cool tips or tech for this project?
Thank you in advance for your help.

 

Do a search this has been discussed,I belive napa has these.

 

I'm dealing with the same problem right now in my Comet. Is there a better solution or are you pretty much stuck with a stock type replacement? I'd rather just add some aftermarket gauges but I dont want to replace the fuel sending unit (it's brand new) and I doubt if I'd be able to find an aftermarket gauge that works with the stock sender.

The voltage regulator for the gages is a set of points and a Bi-metal spring, NAPA has them so does Dearborn cl***ics.
