Hello,
I purchased the Nema23 2.45N.m high torque stepper motors. The wiring colors are Blue, Red, Yellow and Green. The Xcontroller wire colors are White, Red, Black and Green. My question is, what is the correct wire color connection?

You will need to know which terminals on your drive are A+, A-, B+, B- (A pair & B pair)
With the motor on the bench, usually with a pully or something on the shaft to make it easier to turn.....
Turn the motor, while turning, touch the red wire to each of the others and find out which pair makes the motor hard (impossible) to turn
That is the A pair connect to A+ & A-
The other two are the B pair B+ & B-
If the motor turns the wrong way, swap the B pair wires
