Kustom did two versions of the K250-2 and K250-4 amps. The earliest versions used the XLR lighted footswitch plugs. The later versions, Kustom used 1/4" stereo jacks to connect the non lighted footswitches. On the K250-4 amps, Kustom used two 1/4" stereo jacks to control the effects, plus the 3rd, 1/4" stereo jack to connect the wah pedal.
The early XLR versions used the case of the plug for ground. Pin 1 red is 12V, Pin 2 White is Trem/Vib, Pin 3 Green is Reverb, Pin 4 Blue is Boost, and Pin 5 Orange is Fuzz.
The same pin arrangement for the K250-2 as well but pins 3-4-5 and not used.

There is a seperate boost function in the - 4 heads from the fuzz, and since they all go to ground I guess internally within the amp you could land the pink and brown wires to each other and get the fuzz and boost on at the same time.
My two dash 2 heads use pin 2 for the 12 volt hot and pin 1 is ground, so I would first open up your -4 and confirm what lands where, because none of my schematics show the wiring for the foot switch side of either of these amps.
The original XLR jack on the amp was not a Neutrix so I do not know if the pins will line up, nor if they are the same diameter .
