Troubleshooting 7-Way of 2020 Ford F-250 Not Powering Lippert Powered A-Frame Jack

Question:

My electric jack worked fine with my 2020 1500 gmc but I just traded it in for an 2020 f250 and now the lights work but the jack doesn’t have any power. Do I need to re-wire the plug?

It's very possible your current truck doesn't have the power needed at the 7-way to power the Lippert a-frame jack part # LC285318 but the first thing I would check is the inline fuse on the jack's power wire and fix as needed. If that checks out make sure all of the pins on the 7-way are clean so that we know you have a solid connection to the power and ground circuits. If that all checks out you'd need to upgrade the wiring to the 12 volt power circuit of the 7-way with 10 gauge wire like part # 10-1-1 (sold by foot) ran through a breaker like # 9510 and you'd be set.
