My credo
In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
I'm weird. I use instructions and I ask for directions occasionally.

I'm working on something right now that came with almost no directions at all. For wiring it up, the paper simply states;

White - reverse
Red - stop
Blue - turn
Brown - turn

Great. Is blue left turn or right turn? Same for brown. I shouldn't have to get out a battery and test leads to figure that out. But I did.

I was taught by a redneck trailer guy, that Blue is left cause it has an "L" in it, Brown is right cause it has an "R" in it. I can't type here what he said about white and black wires.

But the most common trailer wiring is brown, green, yellow, white.

Nope. Just lights. The sound is in my truck.
Well, rumor has it, that if you use Brown and Blue wires, you're blinkers will make sounds

If yellow instead of blue it was left cause it also had an "L". Don't ask me, that's what redneck trailer guy said. It worked for us at the landscaper with 20 trucks and 8 trailers.

I have a roll of 4-color trailer cable - color coded with each conductor also labeled fir what it goes to. Easy.
