ELECTRICAL QUESTION

Hi Folks

What you are looking at is the bulb socket for my console lighting on a '71 Demon. What I find odd, is that the orange lead appears to be the ground lead, and the black lead is the power lead. To me, that would be wired in reverse polarity. Tracing the black lead, it is definitely body grounded, and the orange wire is a dim-able 12v feed. :wtf:

Thanks.
