When it comes to electricity, Never guess. My IH C is 12v negative ground. My Jubilee is the same. So they may have been positive ground on 6 v.

Another thing to look for. The positive terminal on a battery is bigger than the negative. So look at the wire tied to ground. If it's the smaller terminal, then negative ground.
