I'd start with simple stuff first, Have you tried placing it onto a level area and seeing if it responds? Or adding a small amount of fuel to see if it reads then? I could be wrong but as far as i know I can't see how changing the battery could affect it, the gauge only reads when the ignition is on?! I know my gauge has a reasonably slow response at low levels (just above when the warning comes on) I can park on a slope with it saying all is well, start next time with it saying its thirsty and after a few minutes drive on the level, the warning goes off again.
