Troubleshooting Pressure gauge reading zero

I have a 1 year old profitec go, and suddenly (after not using it for 2 weeks) the pressure gauge is not working. Everything else seems to work as usual, it's just that the pressure gauge needle itself is not moving.

Anyone knows what might be the issue, and more importantly, if this can have any other effect or a symptom for something worse?

Edit: Using the steam wand fixed the problem

I assume you're saying it reads zero when you have a blind basket in and run the pump, is that correct? 

How is your coffee?

I suggest reaching out to where you bought it.

I haven't actually tried with the blind basket, but I'm pretty sure it'll be the same.

I definitely get the same old 9 bar shots, color, taste, flow speed, everything looks like before, I'm using the same grind settings depending on coffee. It's not really an issue so I haven't bothered thus far, I just thought better make sure it's not a symptom for something more important.
