quick question; should there be voltage coming out of the ammeter on the negative side?

Everything connected to the battery positive is hot.

You need to observe when the ammeter moves, as well as how much and which direction.
Look at where the ammeter is placed in the circuit (see diagram above).
The ammeter shows current flow out of the battery (Discharge), or flow into the battery (charge).
Key off, lights off, there should be no current flowing either way.
