Using your picture, set the meter to ohms (touch the two meter leads together to verify zero ohms and adjust meter as needed). Touch a pin in the socket with one lead. Use the other lead on the meter to touch each wire until you find the one with zero resisitance. This is hte wire for that hole. Label it. Lather, rinse, repeat until you get them all identified.
Hmm, now this I might be able to do without blowing anything up. Off to Pep Boys I go for a multi-meter.
