4th Gen power seat wiring
Wiring has never been my best skill. I need some help for a dummy on this.
I have the add a fuse set up to get my power. I understand that end, however I need help at the seat wiring.
1. Is black hot or ground?
2. What do I attach the ground wire to?

Black is almost always ground, any (sheet)metal is an ideal ground.Best if paint is removed for optimal conductivity.

If you pull the carpet back you will find there is a wire grounded to the body under the driver seat. I used that same ground screw for my power seats.
