Don't assume your tv is charging the pods battery just because of a factory bargman connector. A towing package may or may not be set up from the factory to charge a trailer battery. On our Expedition, with factory tow package, the hitch and connector were installed, but, in a seperate bag in the truck were the brake controller interface connection, and a fuse and relay that needed to be installed, in order for the truck to charge the trailer's battery.

kayak - as already stated, no dumb questions exist here. If you are handy with a voltmeter you can obtain the pinout of the Bargman connector online and test to see if you already have +12 between the + and - pins. If you don't at first try starting the vehicle, some vehicles switch that off to prevent a dead battery.
