Since trailer wiring colors on vehicles don't always follow what the industry standard wiring colors call for your best option would be to use a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 to test each of the wires by function and then wire it accordingly to your new connector.
Check out the video I attached that shows how to test the 4-way.
