Victron battery monitor help
I got it installed, but it won't read any amps. At all. I have double checked that it is wired correctly, and there are no connections to the negative terminal other than the shunt. I get voltage read...

Measuring the shunt voltage is a good check but requires a voltmeter to measure very low voltages. A 500A 50mV shunt would measure 0.01V at 100A for example.
That's a good point. A 4 digit meter in the 2v range should see something. A 5 digit or analog meter would be ideal. A 3 digit likely won't register.
Another test would be a clamp ammeter on the cable feeding the shunt. It will at least confirm if current is flowing through or bypassing it some how.
