Do the Colors of Trailer Brake Magnets Mean Anything

Question:
I would like to know what the wire color of the magnet means. Ive noticed the magnets can have the same shape and size but have different colors. Im thinking maybe someone put the wrong magnets on my trailer before I bought it

Actually on brake magnets for trailers either wire can be used as the power or the ground so the colors don't really mean anything. Most likely the magnet manufacturer just put what ever color was most convenient on your trailer.
