Default amp gauge help

I recently upgraded the performance on my 75; heads, cam, intake, ignition system, etc.
My "battery" (amp) gauge worked fine initially ( 100 miles), but now doesn't function. Is there an in line fuse to this gauge? thoughts?
Let me know
thanks
Jeff

There are two fuseable links on either side of the gauge. You'd be looking for orange wires, one in the engine compartment near the alternator, the other is buried in the dash. Most likely the engine compartment link.

There is also a wire that is attached to the starter terminal. If it has become disconnected the amp gauge won't work. Don't ask how I know.
