Default AFR gauge glitch

I have an Innovate AFR gauge. When I first start and get underway, the gauge functions normally. After about 5 min of drive time, it rotates counter clockwise and "sticks" at 8, the lowest ratio on the gauge. The car drives fine, so I know the reading is not accurate. Replace the gauge? I've already beat on it with a hammer, but that didn't help.

Thanks.

Thanks much. Looks like I may need to replace the sensor.
