The Hopkins # H20043 uses the following wire coloring:

White Wire - Ground
Red Wire - Left Turn and Brake
Brown Wire - Right Turn and Brake
Green Wire - Tail Lights
Blue Wire - Brake Power
Black Wire - 12 volt (hot lead)
Yellow Wire - Aux.

I recommend wiring your trailer by function and not color. If there is a circuit you don't need for any reason it doesn't have to be connected.
