Presuming the battery is in good shape (holds a charge and will crank the engine) and your voltmeter is accurate, 14 volts measured at the battery says charging system is working fine.

Problem then is the ammeter hand is somehow sticking and won't go to the + side of center. Verify by taking a small magnet and bringing it close to the face of the ammeter. Depending on how you orient the magnet it will cause the hand to deflect one way or the other from center. If you cannot cause the hand to move to the + side, replace the ammeter!
