Default Tailight issue

I have a 97 Sporty and recently swapped my taillight and turn signals out with an Aurora all in one taillight. My problem is the new taillight/turn signals have four wires (black, blue, Brown, Red) the old taillight has three (red, blue, black) and each turn signal has two wires. I can get the taillight and brake light to work, but the turn signals do not. Or, the turn signals and brake light work, but the taillight does not. I'm not sure where to go from here, any suggestions.

Did you get instructions with the tail light assembly? What does it say about the four wires? Does this assembly incorporate tail, stop and turn? Give me some info and I'll try to help you. John

Thanks for the offer John, I got it figured out. It was a bad ground. Nothing like pulling my hair out for something simple. Thanks again.
