Braund Auto-Skyliner Antenna Control Panel

I used to have a Braund Auto-Skyliner antenna on top of the Excella. It was taken off by a tree or something by one of the previous owners.....I'm the 3rd. Anyway, the control panel has power still running to it and there are 8 of the 11 wires still sticking out from underneath the rotating plate. No lift or rotate motors are seen if they are still there. I have looked, googled, and even contacted the folks at Barker Manufacturing about locating a wiring diagram. I want to install a modern HDTV antenna on the Excella and still incorporate the "original" control panel. I do have power up on the roof and have already been able to figure out which wires "turn" and "return", but that is about it. Does anyone know which colored wire does, and goes to what? PLEASE HELP!!!

UPDATE Braund Auto-Skyliner Antenna Control Panel

I still haven't figured out what the wires were connected to, but I have reached out to Barker Manufacturing.......haven't heard anything back from them, so I am not sure if they are even still in business or not. Their website was dated in 2019. Anyway, I have attached what I have on the rooftop and what's at the control panel to work with, and what I have done in trying to pinpoint wire connections. Its been a long time since I have used colored pencils.......at least there were no lines to stay in!
