Sure the wires are attached securely to back of gauge?? Double check the wires and where they running to make sure one didnt get snagged or cut somewhere.

Maybe you blew a fuse. Thats what happened to me when my EGT didn't work and both of my gauge lights turned off. Check that.

Ohh forgot to mention that the light does work.. the needle just does not move to show the temp.

I think autometer has guages that glow blue but not sure about EGT. go to www.autometer.com and look for the cobalt series(i think)
