I looked at your post in the gallery and see that you have installed an alternator. I'm not sure what happens to a 30A ammeter if more than 30 amps flows through it. Maybe it just pegs at 30A without damage or maybe it blows like a fuse.
Re the schematic. I agree that the back light and fuse should be wired to the same side of the gauge as the ignition.
