Most likely what's going on is you need a 7-way trailer wiring connector but you only need the taillight functions which would be the 3 wires....stop/turn left, stop/turn right, and running light.
You can do this with a 7-way by just wiring up the circuits needed and leaving off the others. It's not required that every circuit be wired up on a 7-way if they aren't all going to be used.
