Methinks it would to good to ask...
Are all wires the same size (gauge)?
Find a lamp or something you can attach a loooooooooooong jumper wire to
CHASSIS NEGATIVE
Run that wire out to next-to the 3 wires in question.
Check and make sure your meter is set on the lowest resistance measuring scale.
The Diode/Continuity scale is a guarantee of lowest reading ohms so select it.
Touch one meter probe to a wire, the other meter probe to your jury-rigged chassis negative coming from inside the rig.
Change from camper wire to camper wire. Do all three.
Beware of the floating decimal point when you come back and report what you see.
(example)
RED "X ohms"
WHITE WIRE # 1 "X ohms"
WHITE WIRE # 2 "X ohms"
