I never noticed any consistency in wiring color choices
and modern cars reuse the same few color*stripe for
very different purposes (I've found this out the hard
way when modifying harness routing).

It would be a good idea to get the diagram for the
particular vehicle in question, rather than betting on
some standardization across all.
 

Hello dick_freebird,

I don't know, how it is in your country, but here in Germany and some other European countries the colors are regulated by DIN 72551.

Here is the link.

I take my informations from "BOSCH Instruction Book for car repair"

Ask your best friend "GOOGLE" for answer.
