the ecu provides the earth control, both amal and iscv have an ign live, run a continuity check and probe it out

you probably spiked the ecu if you sent 12v down the earth wire.

amal
Just had mine setup at noble motorsport there was a burnt out electrode in my ECU which stopped the amal valve working, they managed to fix it top blokes.
