Oil pressure gauge sits at 30, does not move. How to test?

Like the title says, my oil pressure gauge (84K10 with 383 stroker) suddenly decided to stop working.
Normally, sits at 60 when first started up, and at highway speeds.
Idles around 45-50 psi.
Now it just sits at the 30 mark, never moves.
I tested the resistance at the sender, engine off and running.
4 ohms running and around 90 engine off.
I think I got those in the right order.
Looks like I need to test the gauge now to verify it's failed.
Any hints?
