If I can find a switched power source on the right side that is fused from the front fuse box, that will probably work just as well.

Just so you understand. I recently installed a hitch rated for 600/6000 lbs. I had a Curt light controller installed with an adaptor for a 7 pin to provide the 12 volts to the Prodigy RF break controller.

All is well and good except I would like to install the Tow Ready battery Isolation solenoid to turn off the 12v to the trailer when stopped. I just can't find a suitable switched power source to run the solenoid.

Thanks.
There's a blue (violet?) wire with white strip in the wire bundle by the spare wheel area against the trunk lower lid where I tapped +12v switched power to the relay for rear view camera I installed. I tested it with a multi meter. Only turns on with ignition. The wire bundle goes all the way from the left to the right side by the fuse panel.
