Need help with electric brake wiring...

I disconnected my brake wiring at the outside of the inner hub on the tag axle. In the heat of the moment on the roadside I thought my brakes had locked up when in fact it was heat generated from bad bearings. Anyways, I have a black and white wire coming from the brake controller and two white wires coming out of the hub. Is there a polarity issue when you make this connection? If so, anyway to do this without taking the hub apart? Mr.D

There is no polarity problem with the magnet hookup.. Just splice it back together
