Pyrometer Jumping?

Hey I got a question, I helped a buddy install his gauges on Thursday. Today his pyrometer needle started jumping around, back and forth.

Is that a ground issue? Or something else? I'm just trying track down the problem before I tear into it to fix it.

The needles on the other gauges aren't jumping around, so I'm more inclined to think it's on the backside of the pyrometer itself.
It's a DiPricol Optix
Thanks guys, I'll check it out tommorrow afternoon. The power wire runs directly from the fuse panel below the steering wheel to the gauge in the a-pillar.

He said it's only done it once, so I'm concerned I can't get it to do it again. I'm going to move the ground and see what happens. If the pyro works right after that, I guess that was it.

If it still bounces around I'll check into the gauge being faulty...

Thanks for the input...
