i'm installing a 7pin rv connector in place of the flat 4pin that came with the truck. I'm all set on pretty much everything except one pin that asks for a 12v auxiliary line. From my understanding i can run this from the battery or splice in anywhere else i can find an always live 12v source (must be fused at 20amp max). My question was would it be better to go right from the positive terminal of the battery with an inline 20amp fuse, or is there a better place to tap in further back in the wiring harness? I looked at the fuse box diagram and found a 15amp circuit in fuse block 30 that says "trailer tow" or something to that effect in the owner's manual. Is this designated for what i need, and if so where can i tap into whatever wire that fuse is protecting?
sorry for the wordiness in the description, if anyone has installed a 7pin rv connector and has input as far as a good source for the 12v always on please comment
