If you can tell me the year, make, and model of your vehicle along with whether or not it has a factory 7-Way I can be specific. But on the Voyager # 39510, the blue wire is output to the trailer brakes like you said.

White is ground and if hardwiring in the controller it needs to be attached to the negative battery terminal.

Black is 12 volt power into the controller. If hardwiring in the controller the black wire needs to first go to a 30 amp circuit breaker and from the breaker to the positive battery terminal.

And the red wire is input from the brake switch located above the brake pedal. You will need a circuit tester such as # PTW2992 to test the brake switch wires. You need the one that only has power when the brake pedal is pressed. If you find a wire that also has power when the head lights or turn signals are on it is not the correct wire.

You will likely need a wiring kit to make the connections. You can use # 5506. It includes a 30 amp circuit breaker as well. I have also included some links that should help.
