If your powered A-frame jack was getting power through the 7-way trailer wiring connector and now it stopped working it is very likely that you have a blown fuse under the hood of your truck that needs to be replaced. Check under the hood for 12 volt trailer wiring circuit fuses/relays and replace as needed.

It would be more ideal if your jack was powered by a battery installed on the trailer.
