Lorex camera pigtail cut - how to reconnect?

[John Stuckey 0]

A mouse ate thru the pigtail from one of my Lorex cameras (twin type lead; video and 12V power). Inside the cable there are 2 red wires, 2 black wires, 1 gray wire and 1 white wire.

How can I know which black wire to connect to the other black wire and the same for the red wires?

Thank you.

Call Lorex and ask them?

If Lorex doesn't help, you might need to open it up and follow the leads back into the camera with an ohmmeter.

 

If you have the same camera, that will also be helpful, as you can measure from the connector end to the camera end and figure out which is which.
