They are from the pucks for the trim senders and trim limit senders. The trim limit sender makes you use the trailer/trim button, if your boat has one. If not, you only need to hook up two of the wires.

the too other wires from the back of the boat is called your trim limit switch and should hook up in the area by your trim pump, or some times the trim pump wire harness for where thoes wires need to plug in at are ran in the pumps wire harness up along the transom wall or along the edge running left to right behind the pump. Just trace the pumps wires up the transom. i think the colors of wires you are looking for should be white with blue stripe and white with purpel or it might be red can't remember right now with out looking. the bottle wires should be one with tan with blue and the other shoud be with it and I believe it is black. the trim limit switch is for when you are running the engine it should not let the drive come up all the way only half way in general. So you will not cause damage to the drive area. I hope this helps good luck.
