Oil Pressure Gauge

I had a 73-87 oil pressure gauge install done on my gauge panel and dont get any pressure readings.
Some background:
I have a known grounds bus bar I'm taking ground readings from.
I have grounds at the gauge panel, ground continuity to the sender (PS154), engine block and gauge ground lead itself.
I have 12V power to the gauge with power on.
I have continuity from the gauge end sender wire to the sender (engine) end.
I grounded the sender wire from the sender (engine end) the gauge went from zero to 1/4.
Unplugged it the gauge went to zero (the bottom/left).
Here is a pic of the back of my gauge. Could the sender wire and power wire be crossed? I did't want to move them yet as I was afraid to damage the gauge.
