What amp fuse for charging circuit from truck Alt?

I have a new (to me) 2006 Chevy 2500 and a camper to go with it. This truck has a factory tow package but the red wire "battery feed" on the factory plug at the bumper is dead, even with the truck run...

If you must pull wire I would just use simple #6 wire and 60 amp fuse holder.

Honestly I would have the oem circuit fixed. Might be just a new fuse.

Either way consider 100 to 200 watts of solar on the TC to charge the battery. To rely mostly on the alternator is probably setting you up for disappointment.
