A new side to the infamous non-working oil pressure gauge

I know that this question has been asked a lot here, but I can't seem to find a solution by searching the archives.

My oil pressure gauge doesn't work, but I don't think that it's the sender's fault. I say this because when I remove the wire to the sender, the oil pressure gauge doesn't react at all -- it doesn't go to zero or peg itself; it just sits there. This would be a gauge problem, correct? I removed the tach/oil pressure gauge assembly but I have no idea how to troubleshoot from there. Any suggestions?
