I was using a volt meter. I'll try it again with a test light. Going through the wires on the trailer, I've come to the conclusion that the only wire hooked up correctly is the blue wire. So, I'm crawling under it in the next few days and putting it right.
The truck has a 7-blade RV and the trailer was 6-pin. Since it needs re-wiring, I'm going to go with 7-blade. I got a new 7-blade pig tail from Orcheln's and confirmed with the volt meter which wire was which. To check the trailer, I used a 12 volt battery and hooked each wire individually to see what lit up. I have a left brake light, but that's it. And it was the wrong color insulation.
There is no battery on the trailer and no break-away system. I might go ahead and add that while I'm at it.
