Sure.

To sum up, ground that gray wire at the cluster. If the gauge responds and goes to full, you've vindicated the indicator. If not, you might have something like a fine crack in the circuit board -- too fine to be resolved by your photography, and you'll have to use your voltmeter to trace where the 10V goes to zero.

If the gauge does work from up there, repeat the grounding back at the connector to the fuel pump/sender assembly. Same gray wire. Ground it and the gauge should go to full. If it doesn't, then go to extremes like running a long wire to replace it. Consider this especially if you have a lot of rust.
