Expert Reply:
The 1:00 pin position of a 7-way is the 12 volt power source. If yours does not carry the full 12 volts there you might try checking it with the key of the vehicle on as well.
Or you can bypass the factory wiring by running a 10 gauge wire like part # 10-1-1 through a breaker like part # 9510 to the positive post of the battery and you'll pull the 12 volts directly.
