THOR #13171
Ford F53 7 pin tow receptacle

Bought a new 2018 Windsport 35M in sept 2018 on a F53 chassis. I was pressed for time hooking up the blue ox and patriot II for our Taurus toad. Could not get power on the black accessory/charge wire in the 7 pin plug on the back of the MH. Everything else out of the plug worked fine just needed a dedicated hot wire to keep the toad battery charged. Here is where the problem lays now. I rigged up a line direct from the house batteries back then into the car to power the Patriot II. This worked fine up until recently so I didn't bother trying to figure out why the black wire was dead. CALL ME LAZY! Now my make shift fix has failed. Not sure if I have a broken wire under the MH or what but I'd like to fix it the way it should be. With power coming through the umbilical cord to a circuit breaker then to the car battery. Does anyone know where the source of the 12v power for this black wire comes from on the F53? Fuse box under steering wheel and one under hood. Any idea which or where I may fine this power source?
