Where did you get them from?  Are they after market parts?  Are they the correct parts?

Someone else posted this same problem on this site, check back a couple of days on this site.
   It may not be the sending units.
As I offered to his post,  This same thing happened to my 87 Sammy. It was that the fuel & water temp gauges SHARE a common  gauge "Choke" (which is a voltage reducer) crapped out.

A replacement dash from a Junk Yard is the easy answer.

Sorry,
I didn't recognize you in that tiny photo on your post.

Again sorry you are still having problems, as I said B-4 I went radical on my solution.
