I need to know the wiring colors on the tow plug and what they work. I had the Toad wired at the dealers with a Blue Ox Tail Light Wiring Kit and I understand what those wires operate. If someone could give me a heads up on the corresponding wire colors on the coach plug I would appreciate it.

Wire colors may or may not help as CC applies little white tags with numbers on them to each wire in a harness to ID circuits. There are many, many wires of the same color throughout the coach for a myriad of purposes. I haven't looked in a while but I think there are wires of the same color for more than one connection in my tow connector.
Your user manual should have a listing, by number designation, of every circuit in the coach. This is not a wiring diagram, it is a simple listing on several pages of each circuit, its number and purpose. There should also be a wiring diagram but many of mine are illegible. Our 2000 Intrigue had much better diagrams.

The easiest way to wire the plug is with a test light... Turn one circuit on (ie Left Turn Signal) use the test light to see which pin is hot and wire that one, then move to the next one etc etc.
This is a much easier method than wire colors as some may have been moved, changed, or not correct form the get go...

Chuck,

I just went out and checked my 04 Allure. The wires are the standard color code White -ground

Brn-Tail marker/clearance lite
Green-right turn
yellow-left turn

You may already know, the turn lamps are also the brake lites.
I carry a plug in tester that lites up when I turn on the corresponding lite. I check the receptors on the motor home before I travel. This makes it easy to figure out if you have coach wiring problems or the toad. I got it a Wally Mart. U Haul has then also. I also bought an adapter to check 4,and 6 pin receptors.
