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?

Take a photograph. If you can't upload it on to a thread put it in your profile.
