I would use the RV-Style Trailer Connector, # PK12706, which you reference, and install the wires in the proper locations in the 7-Way connector. Our wiring page, see link, has photos that detail the wiring configuration of the 7-Way RV trailer connector for you to check out.

You will need to test the functions of each wire using a 12 volt battery to determine their function. Once you know the function, you can use our trailer connector wiring diagram to make the proper connections.
