The amount of power you get from the 7-way plug on the back of your 2015 Tundra will give enough power to maintain a charge on the auxiliary battery but will not charge it.

If you are wanting to charge an auxiliary battery without a 110 service you can use a charger like part # 331-BCDC1225D. This charger can use up to two 12V sources like an alternator or solar panel to charge an aux battery.

If you prefer charging the battery with a 110 service I recommend the NOCO Genius Mini # NOC34FR.

Actually on brake magnets for trailers either wire can be used as the power or the ground so the colors don't really mean anything. Most likely the magnet manufacturer just put what ever color was most convenient on your trailer.

I would check the magnets for wear before going on to test them with a meter. If the magnets show abnormal wear or if you can see the windings beginning to show through the friction surface of the magnet then they will need to be replaced. To further…
