Trailer brake wires

Hello: I have a 2008 Silverado with the trailering package, I found the wires for the trailer brake but the tag is smudged, anyone know where the wires hook up to? I have red with black tracer, light blue with white tracer, white, dark blue and orange.
Thank you for your time and response.

Re: Trailer brake wires

If you do this yourself, be extremely careful hooking up trailer wiring as if there are any shorts it can cause some weird electrical problems. A little extra time soldering and shrink wrapping will save you a lot of headache later when water gets into the harness and your brake lights activate your parking lights.

Re: Trailer brake wires

Are you talking about the wires under the dash or at the back bumper? None of the colors you mentioned are listed in anything I have for trailer connections.
