Default Which wire on the fuel pump harness is the fuel pump ground wire.

I need to know which wire out of the four that plug into the fuel pump is the ground wire for the fuel pump not the sending unit.
I've got
gray = + for fuel pump
purple which I think is + for sending unit i don't know
black?
Black

which of the remaining 3 wires is the fuel pump ground?

thanks for the help.

It is going to be the black wire that is in the same connector as the grey one for the fuel pump

I need to know what they are from out side the tank. I need to know the wire that hook up from the wiring harness.

okay so the black wire on the far right is the ground to the pump. I forgot i had a volt meter it gives me an infinity symbol that's the reference sensor correct? when touching the ground on the pump and one of the black wires...
