Wires!

hey guys,
on my truck i had a 8 round and i need a 7 flat. so today i was trying to wire the new 7 flat to my truck and can only get the back lights on my trailer to work. no running lights and no brakes.
and in the prosses my clearence lights on my wheel wells went out. on both sides but all my other lights work. what happend to them? they worked before i started to do this. what should i check??
and if anybody knows what color wire does what that would help me out a lot!!!!! i have 3 of the 7 wires on and working right now, the brake lights and both turn signals.
thanks for any help
Mitch

No ... I don't know the numbers off the top of the head. Just look with a flashlight so you can see them well .. it'll be obvious. Or look in the owners manual if you have one it's in there that's where I found it.
