Default Trailer wiring.

SO I went to use my 7 pin round and it wasn't getting much juice to the trailer. It was so little you could hardly see the lights flashing on his trailer my truck lights where bright as every.

I'm thinking it has to be the 7 pin it self a few of the conectors are mussed up inside.

I went to pep boys and picked up a trailer plug but before I cut the tail off the old plug and put this new one in I need to know the colors wire code coming from the truck itself.

Just to add some more info this is what I picked up from pep boys. http://www.hopkinstowingsolutions.com/doc/47185.pdf
