RE: Wiring Confusion
more info.
The two wires (2c) are for if you tow a trailer that requires a 7 prong plug. The Blue is the trailer brake wire that run all the way into the cab, and the red/orange wire is a direct power source from your battery to the trailer.

RE: Wiring Confusion
Thaks, Northey... I couldn't wait, so I went out and simply stuffed a bare ended wire into the plug and smashed the plug into it. Then connected my new wire into the wire coming from the front. Eureka! Parking lights are back on. The turn signals still didn't work, so I took apart the light housings and cleaned them up. There was this crusty tan stuff (looked like paste that had dried) all over the base of the bulbs. I brushed it off and put it all back together and it worked!
Now... power locks.
