Yes, in the stock harness, the orange/blue wire goes straight to earth (ground).

You cut the O/Bu wire near the PGM so any other earth points are not effected, and then route it to 12v. The Bk/Wt wire it is spliced into is the most convenient wire that runs 12v from the ignition - it's the feed from the "kill switch".
