6 pole round wiring

I had a few wires come out of my 6 round trailer plug, and was going to replace it with a new one. The problem I am having is, all the wiring diagrams that I have found for a new plug do not match the colors of my wires. I looked through my Haynes manual and that didn't help. Does anyone know which wires are for what, or what wires are equivalents? I have 7 wires, 4 small, and 3 bigger. The following is what I have: 97 f150

Smaller, skinnier wires:
Brown with green stripe
Brown with white stripe
Green
Yellow

Bigger, thicker wires:
Yellow
Orange
Blue

Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

Did you mean 6 pin round, or 7 pin round ?

If you meant 7 pin round, is it a factory 7 pin ?

The wire colors you have don't all cross to the factory wiring, and did you have the factory 4 pin on there ?










The 6 pin ( if it was changed from the factory 7 pin ) would be 1 of 2 wire configurations, you would have to know what the trailer is wired for to be able to put it back together, and who knows where what came from, as the 6 pin round is not a factory option from Ford.
