Expert Reply:
White and brown is MOST LIKELY running light and white and orange is most likely stop/right turn or is an accessory circuit. Those aren't standard circuit colors though so your best option may be to use a jumper wire from a 12 volt positive battery post like a car battery to put voltage on all of the wiring to see what activates.
