At zero angular frequency, the lower right capacitor is an open circuit, while the upper right electrical impedance tends to $R_x$. With the detector removed, no electric current flows down that branch, so $V_R=V_0$ and $V_L=V_0/2$. ThereforeFor the connected ideal ammeter, the resulting electric current from right to left is $V_0/(R+2R_x)$, despite its zero terminal voltage. This follows from $I_A=V_{\mathrm{oc}}/Z_{\mathrm{th}}$ with $Z_{\mathrm{th}}=R/2+R_x$.
