I would try isolating the ammeter (remove it from the system and jump the
connections to each other- if the charge lamp doesn't flicker, then it's
an internal short within the ammeter.  (make sure the screw terminals on
the back aren't touching the body of the gauge)

I haven't been following this thread, hope I'm not rehashing anything.
