It's time to get out your cheapo digital meter (VOM), your 7-way plug wiring diagram and check the proper pin/terminal for POS 12 VOLTS - with the TV's engine running (alternator operating).
If you don't have 12 volts on the 'charging' pin at the 7-way plug - then check the fuses of your tow harness wiring, under the TV's hood - check your owners manual to find the proper fuses, etc...
If the fuses are OK, you then have to find the relay that powers the towing POS circuit when the ignition is ON - test the relay for proper operation...perhaps the relay has given up the ghost from age, etc...
Our Ford was equipped with the tow harness option when built - the relay was in place, but there were no fuses installed for the charging, brake, tail and stop light circuits...a quick check of the manual showed the proper amp rating and location of the required fuses...
