Trailer brake control help

I just up graded trailers and now have electronic brakes in it. So I go to hook up my box to the factory wiring in the cab and I find out the previous owner cut the connector off. Can someone tell me what wires I need to connect to the controller. I have a 99 ford 150. I have been looking on the web but they all just say plug in the connector.

Thanks

Greg

Here's the connector: http://www.etrailer.com/p-20260.htm

And the wiring:
