Hello Kaye, thanks for reaching out. We do not have any schematics or anything we can reference to tell us where exactly the factory wiring harness comes out of the frame. I did see a few pictures online that showed the wiring harness coming down from the driver's side of the gooseneck tube. With someone having removed it, there is no way of knowing what, or how much, of the wiring was removed. If it were me, I would start at the back of the trailer and trace the wires as far forward as I can. Same with the brake wires. Just follow them forward and see where they go. Depending on how that goes, the best option may be to completely re-wire the trailer with a &-way plug and lead like part # 50-67-106.
