I have had two different answers from auto electricians for this question. Can anyone help?
Our caravan does not have a wiring harness for 12V battery. I've installed a battery with solar panel. Is it possible to run a wire from the battery to the caravan 7 pin input connected through the auxiliary pin with an inline fuse to run the lights?
I don't know how easy it would be to run it directly into the wiring system of the caravan and I don't feel capable of doing that work myself.

If you want to keep it simple, get a 7 pin socket & attach it to the drawbar in a location so you can put the plug in it when you remove the plug from the car. Run your fused positive & negative cable to the socket on the drawbar.
This way you don't have to tap into the vans wiring.

If the van had the 12 volt wiring inplace then " Wasn me" has the simplest answer . I run my 12volt system the same way avoiding the tug battery altogether . I wasn't sure from the post if the van has the dual system
