I agree, it sounds like a low battery but he measured 13 volts. However, that is suspicious as well.
If the trailer isn't plugged into shore power to charge the battery and it's not hooked to a running tow vehicle and there's no solar panel connected then there's no way the battery should read 13 volts. 12.7 would be about the maximum with 12.6 or so being more likely.
Perhaps you have a cheap meter that isn't that accurate?
Do you have a built in solar panel?
