Also check it at the other end. From the pics I can't tell where the black wire ends. It should be grounded to the case of one of the pots.

The ST kits are preloaded. So, the mixing of the coloured wires was done in the factory. It is quite frustrating. The factory could at least pick a common ground colour.
