Hi Price,


If you did a straight swap of the Ammeter with the Voltmeter you will have all 
sorts of problems.

The full current is passing through an Ammeter (no resistance), however if you 
replace the ammeter with a Voltmeter (very high resistance) no current can pass 
to operate the rest of the system.

You have to connect together the two wires that were on the Ammeter. The plus 
side of the voltmeter you have connect to the accesory or ignition terminal of 
the ignition switch. The negative side is connected to any suitable earth point.
