WIRING TRAILER CONNECTOR

The evenings are finally warming up and I'm getting to some outside tasks with the Argosy. I plunged into checking to see what wires were what up front. When I received the camper I wired a new connector directly to the tail lights, using just turn signals and brakes for the way home. Now I'm connecting reverse lights, parking lights, a 12 volt hot wire to the battery charger, and of course the electric brakes.

Here's the scary picture of the junction box on the tongue:
P1010011

The wire colors in that box were a huge mess that I had to figure out first but after removing some extraneous wires to a defunct breakaway switch I was able to work out which wires went where. Then I could use standard colors for the connector. I'm thrilled to have this behind me. Next: connecting the brake controller in the truck so I can go for a test spin :)
