You will need to test the wires you have with a circuit tester like part # PTW2993 to determine which wire carries which function. Check out the video I attached to see how this would be done in a similar scenario.
The problem is that you have a setup that does not use standard wire colors and because of that there's no way for me to know what your colors represent.
I also attached a help article that cover trailer wiring for you to check out as well.
