If you remove the screw that holds the wire connector insert in it should pull out enough to see the plug and it should be marked. Ive seen the electric brake on a center tab and also on the outer tab. you can always test with a multi meter also. Sometimes its all there including backups,12V acess,left turn,right turn,runs,ground and electric brake.

Trailer Plug...

I thought I had an electrical issue with my plug so I went and bought a replacement and there was a color diagram with the new plug...wish I'd have kept that sheet....

I'd recommend you hit a parts store and just open the box and see what the chart says.
