One has to be very careful assuming any color is positive or negative in an RV. Electrons are color blind and often RV builders think of the black wire as being the "hot" wire and continue with that into the 12 volt side of life.
Too many folks have smoked things making assumptions connecting up batteries on the fronts of their travel trailers.
Which brings us back to my previous post (#6 on page 1).

You REALLY REALLY need to trace the wires to see where they go. On 12v systems, black is USUALLY negative, and green is not usually used.
