This is from the '70 TSM but it should be the same fuse box as your '68.

connect a test light between a good  ground and the terminal marked stop light.  if light does not come on, you dont have a bad fuse box, you have no power to the fuse box.

test the connector to the right of it and see if there is power.  i am assuming the fuse is good.
if there is power, there and not the other one, either the fuse is bad or that fuse board may have to be pulled and looked at.  corrosion issues, usually.

Power comes into the fuse box via the Power Inputs lines "BAT FEED", "ACC. FEED" and "IGN".

Turn signal power comes from the upper right terminal marked "BACK-UP TURN SIGNAL". It's source is switched power from the ignition switch terminal "IGN".

This is the fuse box in my '70 Machine. It's probably not that different from your AMX.

Have you verified the fuses are good?

The clips holding the fuses can get oxidized or loose over time. Make sure the contacts are clean and tight.
