Thank you for the report. Our team will look into this further. From the video you provided, I can see that the physical red needle has also stopped moving. This part of the gauge is physically 3D Modeled and Animated. This leads me to believe that the issue is not HTML gauge related, but an issue with Simconnect Variables. We will look into this issue. Thanks again.

Thanks. I wish I could point out anything that might have trigged it but I can confirm it was working when I got airborne and was fine for some time. I was just doing some pattern flying with some hard banks and touch and gos. I may have also been messing with the photo mode.
Okay it happened again and this time I can say for certain it was during a touch/go. Working on approach all the way down to the runway, then it became unresponsive at 23kts as I slowed down after touching down. When throttling back up it never came back.
I should also say I’ve tried cycling every system, turning all the avionics and battery/power off and starting back up, nothing seems to restore it.
Hopefully those details help
Update: This time happened in the air without touching the ground so I can’t say thats related (screenshot taken after I landed) I also had an error about Flaps Failure, though this one I suspect may be due to icing.
This got me wondering and sure enough, I did not have the pitot heat engaged. I wonder if both the flaps failure and IAS failure are due to simulated icing in the sim. I did not encounter this with planes in 2020 but may be different here.
If that’s the case this isn’t a bug, sorry.
