Helpful Expert Reply:
The white wire of the clearance light part # STL78AB that you referenced is the ground, the black is for the running light circuit and the red is for turn circuit. Since standard trailer wiring has the brake and blinkers on the same circuit you'd need a signal converter to separate out just the turn signals for this.
For that you'll need the part # 118158 wired up like the picture I attached.
