So saying that, does there need to be a ground from the 7 pin on the trailer side to the trailer frame? Then a corresponding ground on 7 pin on car side?

I was testing with that plugged into the trailer side without the car involved, just using a battery. Well come to find out the 4 to 7 pin plug was not wired in relation to the trailer side. Stop wire was left turn, running lights were not even hooked up inside plug, screw was out of it! Brake wire was wired to ground, it was all jacked up so I rewired it all to match up! Hours were wasted and bad words were said!
