In the Dodge trucks the TIPM acts as the fuse for the trailer wiring circuits. The only way to fix your situation would be to take your truck to a dealer and have them reset your TIPM. You should note that they will only reset your TIPM 5 times before it has to be replaced, and its very expensive to replace.
Before you do that you should check your trailer wiring for shorts and have them fixed as needed before you attempt to tow the trailer again. You may have already fixed the short by replacing the 7-way though.
