'85 Johnson trim cable wire color question

[FBPirate95]

I'm redoing the wiring on my 1985 90hp Johnson. The white wire with tan stripe goes to the trim guage. But is the black wire with brown stripe a ground for the trim pump? Do you connect it to your negative battery terminal or negative bus?

According to the wiring diagram the Black w/Tan goes to the gauge.
