Generally speaking, the interior lights on an enclosed trailer would be powered by the battery but if the trailer does not have a battery then they would be ran to the 12 volt pin on the 7-way trailer connector. If your interior lights are not working then first make sure you have power on the 7-way because if you do not there may be a blown fuse on the vehicle but you also need to be sure your trailer battery (if equipped) is fully charged.
Unfortunately, I don't have any specifics on an Aluma Trailer but I am sure Aluma would be able to provide this information for you if you reached out.
