Yes, that is a way better ground because it is a factory ground point. Unless you scraped paint off the point you used, it isnt contacting bare metal and wont work properly. there is also a grounding box about a foot forward of that point along the same wall. It's a bhlack box with about 10 brown wires coming out of it. Make sure if you use that box that you still have good contact for everything or else a ton of other sensors wont have a good ground.

Thanks! I just switched it. I'll check in the next few days to see if it stops sporadically turning off/on. I bet that was the issue though. Comparing the two grounds, the factory one looks way more reliable.

Yup.
