Shane and Bill,

Thanks for the feedback. During our trip, I decided to plug into the truck to see how quickly the battery would charge while idling for a few minutes. This wasn't necessary as I had my generator, but I was just curious. My battery showed no voltage change when connected to truck with engine on. Prior to leaving the campsite, my battery read at 12.4 volts. After the three hour trip home, it still read at 12.4 volts.

I also read about how the truck needs to recognize the trailer in order to supply 12v power. In the meantime, I cleaned the trailer's Bargman connector again with terminal cleaner and used Bill's cardboard trick and the truck now sends power to the trailer and everything seems fine. Go figure. I guess the connections needed to be a little cleaner.


John
