I recommend using a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to test the pins in the connector behind your 7-way. If you disconnect the back of your 7-way and test the corresponding pin location, you may have power there. If so, then you simply need the replacement 7-way # PK11893.
If not, then I recommend tracing that wire probing every couple of feet to determine where there is a short. Replace that wire with # 16-1-1 sold by the foot as needed using connectors # DW05744-5.
