Snowbear Utility Trailer wiring??!!! ack!

Good day all!!

So, first time here..

Here is the deal. I have a Snowbear Utility Trailer I got from Canadian tire. The original harness on the trailer was heavily damaged by a friend and replaced with a 7 pin connection as that is what was wired into my Mazda 3 (no flipping idea why?!)

anyways, this week the 7 pin got heavily damaged so I decided to change it out and the one in my mazda to a 4 wire flat connection.. Great, got the mazda wired and tested and all good..

I went to wire the trailer and WHAT? there isnt 4 wires but 5!
Now, no big deal right? well, everything I have read said that I should have the following wires - Yellow, Green (left/right), Brown (markers), Blue (brake signal) and White (ground).
BUT, thats not what I have..

I have the Yellow, Green, 2 brown, white..
Now, a yellow and brown are tied together, a green and brown are tied together and the white on its own.

Now I have been trying to figure out how to wire this to a 4 wire harness.
At first I thought the browns should go to the Brown on the car, BUT I just had a thought.. are the Browns maybe the ground? and the white is the marker wire???

Darn it! its to cold outside to go test that theory! lol
Your thoughts?
