    Voltage prob. From RV to Tow

    Hi. I have a Solera and the voltage at the tow lighting receptacle is 0.5v. Not enough to power the lights on the Jeep I want to tow. Or activate the supplemental brake system. I'm thinking I might need to wire in a new tow harness from the RV. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
