Expert Reply:
It sounds like the 12 volt accessory circuit of your 7-way is shorting out to your running light circuit and that is why it is hot all of the time. Check the back of the connector looking for corrosion and exposed or cut wire and fix as necessary.
I attached a couple help articles for you to check out as well.
