Answer 2

Best way would be to check a different phone jack by removing the face plate then un-s***w the brackets and carefully pull it out enough to see what wires are put on what s***w connectors.

If you don't have another one in your house, check your neighbors/family's jacks, single phone lines are wired the same.

Answer 3

usually in home phone wiring theres 4 wires  2 are dead and 2 are active  one is a ground usually white with stripes or reversed  then find the corresponding coler wire walla you in biz  ........and if typical Jo smo did the wiring then plug the phone into the jack put the receiver up to your ear start connecting wires till you hear the tone  this works ........but  yes there is a but......if you have 2 lines......test after done call that number from another phone.    good luck.
