Expert Reply:
I recommend using the 7-way trailer connector # HM40975 on your 2002 Ford Excursion if you have the round factory connector it plugs into. It will be where the wires you have shown in your picture plug into the vehicle's factory wiring.
If you don't have that connector, then instead use the Hopkins # HM48470 directly onto the loose wires you have. I've attached a diagram that shows the back of a 7-way and which circuit needs to go to which location. You'll want to test each wire you have on the Excursion using a circuit tester like # PTW2993 for function instead of using wire color for the install.
