I can indeed tell you the function and leads for each of the wire for the Dexter BrakeRite Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator for Disc Brakes # DX82KR.

Here is what each is for, per the manual (which is also linked below):

- White: 12V DC negative system ground

- Black: 12V DC positive system power in

- Blue: Brake controller input (from in-cab brake controller)

- Brown: Breakaway input (from one lead of breakaway switch)

- Violet: 12V DC input/output between unit and breakaway battery
