Need suggestion for trailer wiring
I've tried running a search and have looked back about 8 months but can't find a thread addressing this. How would you suggest charging a TC house battery with the 7 pin connected to a cargo trailer ?

Using factory wires it is good idea to recheck ground wire on older truck.
I had F350 that was giving me intermittent charging problem and after long search I found heavy ground wire going 1/2 length of the bed under and bolted to the frame. The 3/8" bolt gave it bad connection and that was on CA truck with no corrosion.
You will get some ground connection via ties on camper, or via hitch on trailer and that adds to hard troubleshooting.
