You have a 2 bulb system for turn, brake and running lights. The trailer has a one bulb system. You need a kit to do the conversion. They are available at any parts store or at U-Haul. Good luck

Suggested Repair

Do not wire the trailer lights directly. The Echo uses a two-bulb turn, brake, and running-light system, while the trailer uses a one-bulb system, so install a trailer light converter kit from a parts store or U-Haul.

Conversation Summary

The owner of a 2003 Toyota Echo asked for the right-signal, left-signal, and stop-light wire colors to connect a trailer, noting that white is ground. The expert said the car has a two-bulb lighting system and the trailer has a one-bulb system, so a conversion kit is required.
