Crud on the level terminals in the tank.
Pull it out and clean it.

Cheers,

In the side of the tank somewhere with about 5 wires going to it.

Have you tried just switching the water pump ON via the switch on the panel, as the gauges only read water level when the pump is live (not pumping), and retain whatever level was recorded the last time pump wiring was active.

I agree with Athol,

I have also popped the panel off and disconnected the wires in the back to reset if turning on the water pump doesn't do the job.
