Sorry, too difficult to visualise from your description.

The good news is that folding camper 12v systems are very simple circuits, so it should take a competent Auto Electrician only about a minute to figure out.

How are you going to charge the battery? Will you run it off the electric hookup on site? If so you need a 12V charger fitted. If you charge it off the white socket on the tow bar I think you may need a relay fitted. Could you post a photo?
