trailer wiring ?

well I need to use my electric brakes Wed. the controller is installed but the problem is 3 previous owners and their in ability to wire a plug. everything at the back of the truck is a mess. I have found Left turn Right turn and tail but can't figure out which wire is for trailer brakes? any one know the color of the wire?
p.s. run out of time searching threads so I am starting this one.

good call wycowboy. they were hooked to the left turn wire which explains why I blew the brake light fuse.
sent you some love (rep points)
