Pressure gauge not working

[WvAquatics]

Ok I am puzzled. I ordered the BRS rodi kit. Pressure gauge, TDS meter, and flow restrictor. Got my package and pressure gauge is reading 0. So I remove gauge water shots out so I'm like ok. Message BRS no questions asked new one shipped out next day. Amazing service. New one arrived tonight hook it up same thing 0 pressure. No way I got 2 bad gauges so tell me what did I do wrong here's a picture. It's about 5 inches from the ro inlet.

Check RO see if the tee going to it is clogged up? Or if it has a directional arrow that is facing backwards? Don’t have one yet, but those would be my best guesses.

Is the flow restrictor in Flush position by any chance?

Nope closed. I'm making water now so it's not clogged. Getting 3-5 TDS from from ro unit so its working well.

What happens if you hook up the Pressure Gauge directly to your input, removing the T from the equation.

You should be able to measure your house pressure that way.

Srry didn't update. I figured it out I needed to tighten up the gauge and it started working. Low pressure but I figured that 40psi
